The series consists of photographs of engineering projects managed by the Dept. of Public Works. The photographs consist of glass lantern slides, some numbered. The views photographed include bridges, road works, buildings and general views and may have been taken between 1859 and 1930. Many of the slides are credited to J. Howard A. Chapman, a well known photographer based in Victoria between 1895 and 1936.
