  I think it is "The" National Park rather than "a". Australia's first National Park, established in 1879, and later Royal National Park after a visit by QEII in 1955. www.environment.nsw.gov.au/NationalParks/parkHistory.aspx... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_National_Park

  I think that is Eccleston Du Faur in his shirtsleeves! See comments -

  Mr Du Faur lived in Turramurra - adb.anu.edu.au/biography/du-faur-frederick-eccleston-3448 - and surveyed and supervised the road to Bobbin Head. I think this is not the current Bobbin Head Road, but what is now known as the Bobbin Head Walking Track. Interestingly, National Parks have sent a 4WD down the track with a GoogleMapsStreetView camera on top, so its all snoopable from the comfort of your desk armchair, without heat, insects, snakes and rogue wildlife! I am not sure if this is the right location, but it is the only one I could find with a built-up embankment on both sides of the track, and hewn rocks on the left. I think it is almost at the top of Bobbin Hill/Head - there is a concrete WW2 bunker or lookout nearby - goo.gl/maps/iM3xK Challenge to anyone find a better match!
