Granite Sculptures - Leslie Dam
Caravan Park
Description
Granite rock sculptures of Patrick Leslie and his wife Kate are located near the dam wall.
Patrick Leslie was a Scot who, along with his brothers Walter and George, was the first settler to take up land on the Darling Downs. In 1847 the New South Wales government asked Leslie to select a site for a town on his Canning Downs station. It was to be known as Canningtown but the name Warwick was eventually chosen. At the first land sale held in Warwick in 1848 Patrick Leslie bought the first allotment. Leslie Dam is named after the pioneering settler.
