The buildings haven't changed and the swimming pool still hides behind the low brick wall. Military landing craft used the ramp in the 1980s, presumably to unload stores for the local camps

As 'T' says the site hasn't changed much. I can still recognise the spot where we kept a friend's speedboat on the site in the 1970s.

Gordon Hard [????- ]

Folks,

Walked from Gold Coast Beach through Castle Peak Beach earlier today and found the buildings of Gordon Hard more or less intact, right on Old Cafeteria Beach.

There is a ramp going down to the beach.  Two giant cast iron rings are found on each side of the ramp, like those on Mount Davis.  Maybe the military used those the haul heavy equipment to and from the water back then?

Best Regards,

T
