Ross Bridge is the village's best sight, a handsome sandstone span across the Macquarie River built by convict labour and finished in 1836. It is one of Australia's oldest surviving stone bridges, and it feels unusually delicate for a piece of road infrastructure.
Look closely at the carvings along the arches. The stonemason Daniel Herbert filled the bridge with portraits, animals, leaves, and strange little faces, turning a government work project into something almost mischievous. The riverbank beside the bridge is a good picnic spot and the easiest place to understand why Ross became a coaching stop on the Midlands road.
