North Dandalup

A small settlement on the South Western Highway 15 kms north of Pinjarra


North to Keysbrook

 

South to Fairbridge

     
 

North Dandalup - Old Roadhouse

General all-purpose everything store on the highway. Today it's closed. Perhaps it's run out of everything or just something? It's on the right of the highway heading south. March 2009

 

North Dandalup - Local Streets

Looking up one of the small roads that lead off the highway towards where the people of North Dandalup live. March 2009

 

North Dandalup - Train Station

North Dandalup train station has been transformed (like Serpentine, Mundijong etc) into something marginally functional - this one doesn't even have any sort of roof - too bad if it's raining. March 2009

 

North Dandalup - Hall

The North Dandalup Memorial Hall on the South Western Highway. July 2010

 

North Dandalup - Fire Station

The fire station is located just behind the Memorial Hall, off the South Western Highway. July 2010

 

North Dandalup - Water Tower

When you drive south from Perth en route to Pinjarra or beyond, this tower it the first indication that you're approaching North Dandalup. Although it looks renovated, I think a wooden tower used to stand on this site or was it a little further north? July 2010

 

North Dandalup - Hotel

North Dandalup is cattle stud country and this is the Stud Country Tavern set back a little bit from the South Western Highway on a dark Sunday morning. October 2011

 

North Dandalup - Dam

Up the hills behind North Dandalup is the North Dandalup Dam. It's actually made up of a number of sections. This is a view near the "second" dam wall, driving south. October 2011

 

North Dandalup - Dam

Underneath the "second" dam wall is a park, water and a small beach (not suitable for swimming), and the pipeline Pipehead. That dam wall is huge. You may see the road coming down to this point about a third of the way up the wall, plus there is a road across the top. October 2011

 

North Dandalup - Pipeline

The pipeline running across paddocks east of the dam. Nice and green for early October. October 2011

 

North Dandalup - Paddocks

Leaden thunder clouds roll in from the Mandurah area threatening this paddocks and dead tree. Shortly after this picture, the heavens opened including some hail. October 2011
