Argyle Cut

 The Argyle Cut is a deep rock cutting giving a direct connection between Millers Point and the Rocks. It is covered by two bridges, the Cumberland St bridge of c1911 and the Bradfield Highway c 1930. 

On the wall of the Argyle Cut is an inscription that refers to the completion of the overhead bridges: completed 1867-1868, by Sydney Municipal Council, Charles Moore, mayor.
