Cement Creek Sawmill Cottages - Physical Description 1
Ruins of the Cement Creek Sawmill cottages survive close to the alignment of the tramway that linked Warburton, the Enterprise Sawmill and the forested slopes of Donna Buang. One of the cottages sites was inspected. The building has collapsed completely, with the corrugated iron roof largely covering what may remain of the walls. The only standing structure appears to be a porch or perhaps the outhouse. Sections of a door, and a variety of artefacts are visible.
The other cottage was not located during our field visit, however according to McCarthy it is apparently in worse condition.
The track up to the cottages follows the tramway alignment, and then goes to Dom Dom Saddle, Mt Donna Buang and Acheron Gap. The tramway alignment is very clear in places as a cutting into the slope.Cement Creek Sawmill Cottages - Physical Conditions
