A proposito di questo titolo
In this episode we welcome Colonel John C. Platt, CSC (Retd) to the series to discuss the history of North Head. Host of Run Ashore, Mark Cooper and John explore the history of Garden Island, it's importance to the Royal Australian Navy and why it's location is significant.
Three facts from this episode:
- In 1945/46 the Royal Australian Artillery moved to North head and was based there until 1997 before moving to Puckapunyal in Victoria.
- The quarantine station is also located on North Head. From the 1830s until 1984, migrant ships arriving in Sydney with suspected contagious disease stopped inside North head and offloaded passengers and crew into quarantine to protect local residents.
- North Fort was strategically placed at the northern entrance to Sydney Harbour, the fort was part of a defence system that spanned 300km of coastline during World War II.
