Brunswick Heads History

http://www.brunswickheads.org.au/brunswick/history/9

This link briefly outlines early Brunswick Heads influences, and makes reference to some of the issues confronted in labour history. There's irony in that the coming of the railway to Mullumbimby meant decline in 'Bruns', with the demise of the railway in 2003 threatening links between all Northern Rivers towns.

Some other coverage on the 'old' Bruns Bridge' and its demoliton by the RTA, following the massive upgrade of the Pacific Highway through to Yelgun. :

NCLH is interested in comment relating to work/ labour community on the North Coast that touches on these issues.
