Statement of Significance
Mooliaman's reserve was engineered to deliver an appropriate quality of water for the steam engine locomotives. The reserve signifies an important mode of transport for the inner-town timber industry activity.
Physical Description
The reserve is still designed with drainage and catchment
channels to transport water into the dam despite the initial
operation not in use for many years.
History
Mooliaman was once a name for a small section of the Boddington district, far along Crossman road. It was utilised mainly for agricultural activity.
Mooliaman's reserve was designed to effectively capture suitable water. This water was to provide energy for the steam engine locomotives, formally present in the district. Boddington steam engines greatly assisted the local timber industry.
