DETAILS

TitleTwelve huts on foreshore on Bribie IslandDescriptionAbout 1918 just after WWI (World War 1) the Brisbane Steamship & Tug Company constructed twelve huts on their foreshore leasehold just behind the Bribie Jetty. The aim was to provide cheap holiday accommodation for visitors who did not wish to camp. In later years these twelve Apostles as they became popularly known were to provide more permanent accommodation to the island's pensioners.
