It is thought that the Bicentennial Tree lookout was constructed in C1988 as a project to jointly commemorate the Bicentenary of Australia, and to create an alternative tourist attraction to the well known Gloucester Tree, which was showing some signs of distress. The Gloucester Tree lookout was built in 1946 as a fire look out tower and has been a significant tourist destination for visitors over the past 50 years. In 2002 the millionth official climber was recorded. (Refer Gloucester Tree information) Refer to 16.6 for more historical notes
