Embankment of Stevens Creek, Broken Hill Reservoir circa 1910 |

| Description |
This photo shows the embankment of Stevens Creek at Broken Hill Reservoir with the Stevens Creek Pumping Station in the background. The first sod of the Stephens Creek reservoir was turned by Sir Henry Parkes (Premier of New South Wales) in April 1890. The dam was completed in 1892 by the Broken Hill Water Supply Company to provide a continuing water source for drought-ridden Broken Hill. The reservoir soon became inadequate and a further reservoir, Umberumberka, was built to add to the water supply. Stephens Creek Reservoir remains the primary water source for Broken Hill today.
