Cootamundra

Cootamundra is situated on the Olympic Highway, is home to the Cootamundra Wattle and birthplace of Sir Don Bradman. The town is a centre of rich crop growing and grazing area, that prospered when the railway line came through in 1876. In the town Jubilee Park and the Bradman Cottage are worth visiting. The town itself isnt particularly attractive - a plethora of bends through town as the main thoroughfare is frowned upon in my view. However, the area through the town centre was worth a photo, and shown below.
