1974 has been one of the wettest years recorded. The Yarra has risen frequently but, fortunately, without the disastrous floods that have been known in Bulleen and Templestowe.
There are records of repeated floods in the early 1840's and the early 1860's when the Warrandyte bridge and the bridge behind Finn's Hotel were washed away.
In 1954 another flood covered the flats at Templestowe and rose above the Heidelberg bridge.
