Statement of Significance
As the site of some of the earliest European settlement in the area, this foreshore is significant. However the area has been extensively altered and subdivision has reduced open space to a tiny fraction of the original locations. The reserve has social significance as the remnant of the site about which early history revolves.
Physical Description
The Coombe reserve is a small park at the foreshore. It has lawns, a narrow beach, a playground, limestone cliffs and a mixture of native and introduced vegetation. Native river rushes at the water's edge. Some small caves. Private building in cliff face, high walls and gates.
