Cremorne Point

• beachcomber australia said:

  Hmm. Thinking this might be from Cremorne Point looking west-ish towards Kurraba Point (?)

  These more elevated Stanton Library pics show the same foreshore: trove.nla.gov.au/work/239785325 trove.nla.gov.au/work/239785322 trove.nla.gov.au/work/190080674 - a couple of the houses on the West side of Baden Rd also appear in this 1932 NLA Fairfax Collection pic...

Robertson Point Lighthouse

from Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection

• beachcomber australia said:

  The lighthouse was built in 1909 - lighthouses.org.au/nsw/robertson-point-lighthouse/
  It is looking brand spanking new here; and it looks like the "mains electricity" mentioned in the site above, is not yet connected; no poles and wires.

  [Aside] I drank a bottle of bubbly with a friend on the lower level back in the 1980s. Probably why access is prevented now!

  A favourite spot 50+ years ago - a girl, a blanket, and just watching the world go by. There was a steel ladder down the cliff at that time, and access was easy. Surprisng how much activity there was on the Harbour at night.
