Panorama of the historic water flume of the Stawelll water supply scheme constructed between 1875 and 1881 along the slopes of the Mount William Range. The system included a pipeline from Stawell to the eastern side of the Grampians, a 1 kilometre long tunnel through the Mount William Range and about 12 kilometres of flume to a weir on Fyans Creek which was at the time the most reliable water source. The panorama shows views of the Serra Range and the vertical rock faces of Barbican rocks north of Barney Creek.
