  • Trial Bay Gaol Conservation Management Plan
    2.0 Trial Bay Gaol: the Site and its History 2.1 Location and Site Description Trial Bay Gaol occupies a landmark position on the tip of Laggers Point at Arakoon. The gaol has extensive views in most directions and it is also clearly visible from a range of vantage points including South West Rocks. The site is approximately 500km north of Sydney and south of Brisbane, mid-way between Port Macquarie and Coffs Harbour. The closest large town is Kempsey, inland on the Macleay River. The site is at the southern edge of Trial Bay. While Arakoon is the local village, South West Rocks is the main town of the area. The Arakoon Conservation Area forms the northern edge of a series of national parks and conservation areas the largest of which is Hat Head National Park. Trial Bay Gaol is one of a series of historic sites in the locality, the other major site being Smoky Cape Lighthouse Group. The gaol was constructed on a granite outcrop as close to the point as possible with the intent of placing the workforce for the breakwater construction immediately adjacent to the worksite. The proximity can be seen by the quarry excavation almost abutting the northern edge of the gaol wall, requiring stabilising of the rockface in recent years. The gaol was also carefully located with a mind to security and the narrow headland proved a relatively easy site to guard. Early photographs and plans show the gaol site with its demarcation and protective lines set within a cleared landscape to assist in guarding the perimeter.

  • Submission As an Attachment Via Email E
    To the Department of Industry Submission regarding the Proposal to grant a commercial lease for Katoomba Airfield Submitted by Manda Kaye CO-FOUNDER BLUEMTNSPEACEKEEPERS, SMALL BUSINESS OWNER AND MTNS MADE CREATIVE [email protected] / bluemtnspeacekeepers.org July 26, 2019 Mr Glen Bunny Department of Industry, Crown Lands [email protected] Dear Mr Bunny RE: LX 602686 – submission as an objection to proposed lease of Katoomba Airfield I am a small business owner, a member of the growing Mtns Made creative community and one of the co-founders of Blue Mtns Peacekeepers. I’m writing to you to express my deep concern over the proposal to commercially develop Katoomba Airfield, which, if it is granted, will profit the leaseholder at an enormous cost to our local community, environment and economy. Who are Blue Mtns Peacekeepers and what is our position? Blue Mtns Peacekeepers was begun by a group of local citizens who are deeply concerned about the proposed commercial lease of Katoomba Airfield. We speak for the vulnerable plant and animal species in this glorious and fragile World Heritage Area where we live. We represent the many residents and visitors who come here to experience the natural quiet of the bush. It is the mission of the Blue Mtns Peacekeepers to protect the tranquil environment that supports the biodiversity of our beloved Blue Mountains National Park - for its own sake, but also, because this is the bedrock of our local economy. We object to the approval of any commercial lease on the crown land containing Katoomba Airfield. To protect the ecology and the economy that depends on it, this crown land should be added to the Blue Mountains National Park and World Heritage Area by which it is surrounded.

    Hut News Issue no. 383 August 2020 Blue Mountains Conservation Society Inc. HUT NEWS Nature conservation saves for tomorrow Blue Gum Forest - a threatened future Wyn Jones Wyn Jones submitted a formal report to the NPWS after a permitted visit to Blue Gum Forest in April 2020 with friend Richard Delaney. This is the seventh time the Blue Gum Forest, and the Upper Grose Valley has burnt in 60 years. It is more frequently burnt than almost any other place in the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area. The state of the forest is unlike that seen by anyone before. Why? The combination of climate change, drought, fire and flood has probably never occurred like this before. We must ensure it never happens again. We must provide a history of this place for all people to witness and renew each year, and for each new generation of trees and humans. ‘As I walked down the last slope towards Blue Gum not so eroded from the January cloud fall, a torrent of Forest I heard a gasp in the quiet, a drawn breath water from the sky of a ferocity previously unknown. whose sound floated past the tree skeletons and was And yet, today’s descent had been personally lost in the valley walls beyond. If I have walked here unremarkable, with few physical impediments, fallen once, I have walked here a hundred times. And each trees, rock falls or loose step treads. This was in time it is different.
