The Furphy Foundry is located in Shepparton. John Furphy, the famous blacksmith and wheelwright, came to Shepparton in 1873 and by 1880 he was manufacturing water carts that became hugely popular around the country. Many were purchased by the Australian Army and were widely used in camps during WWI where the the term 'furphy', meaning a rumour or tall tale, came to be used because soldiers gathered around the water supply where rumours were shared and spread. John's brother Joseph wrote the great Australian novel, Such is Life. Today the Furphy family still own the foundry and museum on Drummond Road.
