More about this scene

This photograph was taken from Nells Point above Jackson's Bay. The first large property on the left is The Towers, and in front of it is the path leading down to the harbour and Jackson's Bay. Allotment gardens on the cliff top and behind Redbrink Terrace were an essential part of everyday life and were extensively used by local residents in the 1920s to feed their families.
