During the gold-era, Stringers Creek was home to an entire industry that processed the waste of the main mines that was washed downstream. This waterwheel was at "The Cascades" which can still be seen today from the Walhalla Goldfields Railway. If you look carefully, you'll also see here some remains of the dams that used to be spread along the creek to feed water to the waterwheels that turned the crushing plants.
