Text: A farm recorded by surveyor William Govett (1807-48) as belonging to the Jenkins family was already in the area when the Wheeler family arrived. The Wheeler family built a house of rough hewn timber, which was the house of James Wheeler from 1836 until his death in 1890. He also owned 230 acres in different parts in the south side of the lagoon and made another purchase in 1842, buying 86 acres, known as Fox's Flat, on the northern side, facing Pittwater Road. Wheeler also established a farm and sent produce by boat to Sydney from North Harbour, Manly. The War Veterans Home, reached by Veterans Parade, is adjacent to this small locality and is bounded on the north by parks alongside Narrabeen Lagoon. |
