What historic or scientific sites are located nearby?

Are there any environmental considerations to be aware of in this part of Geilston Bay?
The suburb is downwind of the Risdon Zinc Works in Lutana, which has contributed to moderate levels of airborne zinc, lead and cadmium in the area. Residents often use raised garden beds with clean soil for vegetable growing, as recommended by a 2009 CSIRO report.
