We're proud of the rich heritage of Catherine Hill Bay and want to make sure it's preserved and celebrated now and into the future.
We are preparing a Heritage Interpretation Plan (HIP) for the Catherine Hill Bay Master Plan Precincts.
The Catherine Hill Bay Precincts Master Plan highlighted the opportunity for the interpretation of key elements within the project site as one of the key principles for integrating the heritage and historical context.
The HIP builds on the master plan to provide a targeted approach for delivering messages about the cultural heritage values of the site to users and other audiences.
The HIP will focus on the two precincts - the Surf Life Saving Club Precinct and the Middle Camp Sports and Recreation Precinct -and interpretive opportunities along the proposed coastal walkway and heritage trail, including the Catherine Hill Bay Lookout on land managed by the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS).
The HIP will offer recommendations for interpretive elements and media across these precincts, including signage, markers, timelines, integrated public art, functional and play-based features - each celebrating the rich history, stories, peopleand infrastructure that define Catherine Hill Bay.
Whether you live locally, have connections to Catherine Hill Bay, or simply value the area’s rich history. Your input will help us highlight people and community, important historical events, businesses, infrastructure, and personal memories that should be celebrated through heritage interpretation. Help shape how Catherine Hill Bay’s heritage is remembered and experienced by taking part in a workshop or completing our survey.
