Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Cameraygal PeoplePrint Page 
A plaque commemorates the Cameraygal people who defended their country by resisting the British settlement of Australia.
Woodford Bay is historically significant as it was at this site, on 14 February, 1790, during the Governance of Captain Arthur Phillip, that the first recorded meeting in the Lane Cove area took place between the Cameraygal people and the British.
