1908 photo



This image dates from circa 1908, and shows Manly Ocean beach from the high ground above Marine Parade. On a second glance, it's possible to make out at the foot of the picture the boys diving from a makeshift plank diving-board extending out from one of the trees. This has always been a rocky corner, and they must only just have cleared the rocks with their dives. No public liability worries then.
