THE PROSPECT AND KENNY HILL SCHEMES. 265 
my survey I believe it would cross this spur without any tunnel ; 
but in any case it would only require a short tunnel of about 400 
after which it would descend for over 14 mile—the valley of 
one of the feeders of Bunbarry Curran Creek. At about 4 miles 
m the point of inlet it would cross Bow Bowing Creek, 70 feet 
wide, with steep banks on either side, by another aqueduct 130 feet 
long ; and, halfa mile further on, the pipe-line would cross under the 
which is 180 feet wide, with steep banks on either side, by an 
aqueduct 500 feet long, reaching from the top of the left bank to 
the top of the right bank, at a height of 40 feet above the river 
bed, and about 45 feet above sea level. At this point, owing 
to pressure of time and the dense nature of the scrub, I was com- 
: ge reservoir to Paddington is estimated at 31 miles, 
Whilst that from the supply or service reservoir is estimated at 1 
mile further, giving a total length of 32 miles of pipes.
