Seagull History Lesson:
There is a picnic area with electric barbeques, picnic tables and toilets. In the picnic area there is a wrought iron “folly” entitled “Hermitage” which was erected as a tribute to “The Hermit” John Maddox who lived in this area for about 20 years. His dwelling was a small hut with a bark roof. Surrounding his hut were lots of tea-trees and paths he had covered with sea shells. At the entrance to the property was a warning sign, “Blasphemers not allowed in here”!
It was only after John Maddox was admitted to hospital suffering from a serious attack of Edema that the local community learned his actual name. John Maddox passed away in 1917 at age 60 and not long after vandals destroyed his home and art objects.
