The Angle Pole

For those wanting to know what the plaque reads...'One of the greatest achievements in Australia's telecommunications history, was the Overland Telegraph Line which crossed the continent from Adelaide to Darwin. Built between 1870-1872 the southern portion veered at this point in a northerly direction towards Alice Springs. This plaque and monument depicting the angle pole used extensively in the district, stands in recognition of a great achievement won through hardship and endurance. Telecom Australia'
