Summary

[General description] Looking from the foreshore at Semaphore along the length of the jetty. The jetty has a dog leg bend at the end and a tug and steamers can be seen in the gulf. A band stand and a flag pole are positioned on the foreshore near the beginning of the jetty. [On back of photograph] Semaphore, probably in the eighteen eighties. According to a researcher the picture must be from after 1889 as the rotunda which was located south of the jetty was not constructed until that year. This information comes from Chronology of Semaphore.
