Captain's Flat

Captain's Flat
It all started with a bull by the name of ‘Captain', when this area was all bushland. Back in the mid 1800s Captain lived on a nearby property, but was prone to wandering. When he’d put a smile on the face of all the cows he could find, he’d head for his favourite grassy flat on the bank of the Molonglo River, as seen above and now parkland and playing fields. The area became known as ‘Captain’s Flat’ among the locals. Later came the mining and the town. And that's no bull. :-)
