History
In 1915 the Murray Roads Board resolved that the swimming area should be reserved for the sole use of ladies at certain times of the week, and by-laws were written up to that effect.
Both shed and toilet were probably destroyed in the 1926 flood, since in early 1927 the Road Board had agreed to erect a new 10' x 10' galvanised iron shed for the bathing public.
In May 1929 the "South Western Advertiser" pointed out that the Bathing Shed was a popular location for lovers.
It is currently unknown when the Bathing Shed was removed.
