Summary
Photographs taken in the original town of Onslow including the cemetery. Repeated damage whenever a cyclone hit or the Ashburton River flooded led the Western Australian Government to establish a new town well away from the river after another cyclone in January 1925. These photographs show some of what remains of the old town.
