Robinvale, Victoria
Encyclopedia : R : RO : ROB : Robinvale, Victoria
Robinvale () is a town on the south bank of the Murray River in northern Victoria, Australia. It is connected by a bridge to Euston on the other side of the river in New South Wales. The town is named in memory of Lieutenant George Robin Cuttle, who was Killed in Action during air combat over France in 1918. Lock 15 on the Murray River is just downstream of the town providing a pool of irrigation water and ensuring that the river near Robinvale is permanently available for water activities such as water skiing. The weir and lock were completed in 1937, the last one built on the Murray (Locks 12–14 and 16–25 were never built).
