HISTORY FILES


The Early Days
Captain Cook named various landmarks along the south coast (Mt Pigeon House, Cape St George) on his discovery voyage of Australia, it was not until 1882 that further exploration opened up more land for settlement along the Southern coastline.


The Inlet Cottages
Some time in 1918, Henry Hourigan applied for and was granted a parcel of land, on the Farnhem Headland, overlooking the entrance to the sea from Sussex Inlet. Hourigan set about building a holiday camp on the site.


An Historical Cottage
The oldest existing building in the Sussex Inlet district is the Christian's Minde complex located on the north shore of the Inlet.
