Information

The Inland Defence Road was built during World War II between Ipswich and Charters Towers with a workforce partially made up of Italian and Albanian internees.

The Cracow Creek stone pitched bridge is one of twelve that were constructed and is approximately 30m long. It is no longer used, but a bridge over Delusion Creek is still in use.
