Statement of Significance
Tullis Bridge has significant associations with the local timber industry and the connection between Narrogin and Pinjarra.
Physical Description
Tullis Bridge now remains as two separate structures at either side of the river bank; the trestle supports of jarrah rounds between, no longer meet. Decking once consisted of sleepers within crushed rock. However, the metal train line acts as the only bridge between both sides of the Hotham River. Remaining pylons write 1912 in Roman Numerals. The Bridge is continuing to deplete as a result of arson.
History
Between 1912 and 1968, Tullis Bridge was used to link Pinjarra and Narrogin.
