Semaphore Jetty
The Semaphore Jetty was completed in 1860, primarily to provide berths for the Pilot and Quarantine Launches, as well as many small craft plying to and from the jetty to the ships at the anchorage. The Customs officers went out to the ships in the Pilot Launch. This venerable structure was later a focus of seaside holiday activities and is currently the terminus of the Semaphore to Fort Glanville Steam Railway.
