During World War II, the lookout turned into an air observation post, surrounded by barbed wire and operated by 56 Anglesea Volunteer Air Observers Corps with a 24/7 patrol between 1942 – 1945.
This lookout was built in 1938 as a memorial to James Loveridge by his widow Bertha who selected the site, his favourite vantage point to watch the ocean.
Beach, bush and kangaroos are the ingredients used to make Anglesea a favourite holiday spot. Located 10 minutes west of Torquay on the Great Ocean Road.
