’74 Storms

From our own family album. Took this photo in May ‘74 when cyclone damage was almost complete. This was the kids playground once located in Mitchel Road high above the wall. Note the monkey bars are at the bottom, and the rocket is about to end up at the bottom very soon. No holding back spectators in 1974! photo Neil Moulang courtesy Historic Cronulla Sutherland Shire.
