Jeffery Street crosses the KooyongKoot (Gardiners) Creek about mid-way along its length as both wend their respective ways from Blackburn Lake to Blackburn Road. The photo above shows the then bridge over the creek in 1969.

The bridge has been rebuilt since the 1969 photo above – but still retains its rustic charm even with the colour change as shown in the 2026 photo above.
