Coal River (Tasmania)

Coal River is a river in southern Tasmania. With headwaters near Tunnack, it flows through the Coal River Valley and the town of Richmond, and empties into Pitt Water.[1] In Richmond, the river is crossed by the historically significant Richmond Bridge, the oldest bridge built in Australia that is still in use.[2]
