There is a small, cleared picnic area just over the closed bridge over the Florentine River - near the start of the walk to Wylds Craig - I think it is Tiger Rd. In the last week I've heard 2 similar stories - that it was constructed for a royal visit. One mentioned a visit by a Queen of Thailand. The other person thought it was the Queen of England.
Does anyone know the real story of this picnic area - where there must have been a hut - as there is a large stone fireplace and chimney remaining and a picnic table mounted on top of a large tree stump. When it was all constructed & why etc.
There are a couple of tracks leading away from the cleared area - one from behind the fireplace and one along the river - upstream. Were these just short walks from the picnic area?
Just curious...
