Tarban Creek

The creek becomes substantially wider as it runs past Riverglade Reserve and a residential estate at Huntleys Cove.

[1] A small footbridge also spans the creek, linking Riverglade Reserve to Joly Parade in Hunters Hill.

Along with her dogs, she made her home in a humpy of scrap iron and wood in the lantana and blackberry bushes on the banks of Tarban Creek.

When her hut burnt down in 1923, the citizens of Gladesville were so concerned they organised and built a new cottage for her in Auburn Street.

When Lucy died in 1928, she was buried in the Presbyterian section of Field of Mars Cemetery, and the costs were met by the residents of Gladesville.
