Bridging the mighty Clutha - Roadside Stories
Balclutha began life as 'The Ferry', the site of a ferry crossing on the mighty Clutha River from 1852. Gold brought new settlers, and a bridge was built, but was lost -- along with four others further upstream -- in a flood in 1878. The current bridge opened in 1935, prompting four days of celebration by delighted locals.
