Kurnell Cliff Dwellers

Tabbigai Cliffs, located about 1km south of Cape Solander, were home to men such as Bert Adamson, Gordon Donovan, and Sid James, who have left a record of their experiences. They lived there, happily, from the 1920s until their cliff houses were demolished in 1974.

You'd be complained about, shack pulled down & moved on to the streets.

Another place to look at is Crater Cove on the Spit to Manly walk. The buildings are still there. Built during the Depression. There are others too, but if told you…….
