DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The River Styx was the barrier between Earth and the Underworld in Greek mythology. In the mid-nineteeenth century the name was also given to a small creek that ran along Hamilton's western border. The story of what happened to Styx Creek and how it became the vast, straight "drain" that slices through Broadmeadow and Hamilton North, forms the backdrop to this book. Equal parts diary, inquiry and observation, A year down the drain invites you on a journey with the author into Newcastle's watery underworld.
