Bark Hut

The original hut stood at this site till the 1970's when they did it up. It burnt down on Ash Wednesday in 1983 and the desendants of the original owners rebuilt it from the plans used in the 70's.

Big House!

This house is right up the hill from the Ocean Rd Memorial gate.... big houses round here. Couldn't get the one on the pole so this will have to do. Mark told me there is a golf ball house so I'll keep a look out for that!
