Summary

Police Station, Roper River. In 1885 it is recorded that Corporal Power was returning to Mount McMinn and this is thought to be the first mention of police near Roper River. The police station was washed away in subsequent floods and rebuilt over time adding further extensions. The photograph shows a sturdy single storey building with an iron roof standing behind a fenced yard. Further buildings can be seen at the back of the station.
