Signal Station

This lovely house is now the signal station cafe and it was the perfect place for a morning tea break after an early morning soccer game for boys.

There used to be a number of signal stations along the river. Each signalling to the next to tell of the arrival of ships, and of course the occasional convict escape. FRom this one you can see all the way down the river to the mouth of the river and then back up into town. Luckily the rain had stopped on Saturday so we were able to sit in the glassed in verander and enjoy the view. So very nice after standing on the frosted grass for an hour.
