The Goulburn Steam Museum, a small town in the southern Tableland of New South Wales, is located in a garden-like environment in the Wollongiley River.
In the 1880s, Goulburn was one of the first regional centres in Australia to provide piped drinking water to residents, and the Goulburn water plant is still in good condition, with pumping stations and still operating steam beam engines. This unique plant is the only fully functional steam-powered municipal water supply facility in Australia, and these buildings and installations are nationally significant and are now protected by the permanent Protection Act.
