We certainly have had some trying times over the 2023-24 period. However, as quiet achievers, the team is always busy researching and editing for new projects.

On a very positive note we are now back on track and our IT expert Robyn and our research team has been working with PORT STEPHENS COUNCIL and FRIENDS OF TANILBA HOUSE on a special project.

It is a HERITAGE project and is absolutely brilliant. Our website has undergone a huge transformation and will be simultaneously unveiled with the HERITAGE PROJECT.

WATCH THIS SPACE FOR THE LAUNCH DATE !

These are the Centenary Gates or Water gates- completed in 1931 also built by Henry F. Halloran.

We received an enquiry yesterday regarding the history of the stone gates at Tanilba Bay. This is a very early picture of the Entrance or land gates nearing completion in 1931 from our archives- no roads as yet
Our society, some time back, published a book " Henry F. Halloran in Port Stephens, the Legacy", which tells you all about the rustic, pseudo convict stonework at Tanilba Bay. It is available for $15 plus postage.
