Commercial Street, Robertstown, Queensland.

Description

In the heart of Robertstown lies a unique garden interpreting the demarcation line between where rainfall has been reliable and where unreliable rainfall continues to prevail. During a severe drought in 1865, George Woodroffe Goyder plotted this line on a map based on the change of vegetation on both sides. The Goyder Interpretive Garden features these vegetation variations as well as the town's original railway sign and some old farm machinery and ploughs.
