Lynn Avenue

It was overcast by the time I got to Lynn Avenue, November 2017
Lynn Avenue is quite a short street, just behind the Gosford Yacht Club and 30 seconds’ walk from the foreshore. From the yacht club to the Bonython Tower (Singo’s tower) in the very heart of Gosford is about 20 minutes’ walk or 3 minutes’ drive along the foreshore and up Mann Street.


Some locals think of this area as East Gosford but technically it’s Point Frederick.


Landscaping happening at Lynn Avenue site, November 2017
As well as the plants we can see here being planted in the top left corner of photo, out of view are the little pots of a purple and white native violet (Viola hederacea) waited to be planted too. Violet hederacea is local to the area so it does well in local gardens. It makes a great filler in garden beds and a great groundcover too. So do the other two local native violets, the all-purple Viola betonicfolia and the purple and white Viola sieberana. Most local garden shops have them.


Stones carefully placed to look as natural as possible, November 2017

Stonework was underway in the entrance way, next to the letterboxes on the front of the building.

It won’t be long before the residents are moving into this site. Just some finishing to be done on the inside and then the views down the length of beautiful Brisbane Water are theirs to enjoy.
