About | Ferguson Tractor Memorial is the world's first tractor memorial built by Wentworth people. The construction of the TEA20 Harry Ferguson tractors and massive water main dams protected Wentworth from the devastating floods of 1956. Floodwaters raced towards Wentworth via the Darling and Murray rivers, resulting in a third of Wentworth going underwater. During the floods, the roar of the little Fergies could be heard 24 hours a day as volunteers patched and built crumbling and new levee banks to fortify Wentworth from the rising waters. You can see the stone cairns in which the memorial rests. |
