Back Creek (after some rain) has an Artesian Memorial, Erected in commemoration of the explorative work undertaken by the pioneers of the Great Artesian Basin of Australia, and to the sinking of the first commercial artesian bore in Australia at Back Creek, 38km east of Barcaldine in 1886.

 

Barcaldine became the first town in Australia to use artesian water for reticulation from the town borehead completed in 1887.
