Given this:

<hr>Cornwall has Land’s End, Tasmania has Cockle Creek, the southernmost part of Australia. <hr></blockquote>
(according to here)

shouldn't you be lobbying for this to be enhanced by this

I think a giant Tasmanian tiger would be a start.

I seem to recall Land's End was nothing more than a windswept cliff with a multitude of signs pointing to various destinations across the globe with a solitary stunted, green-faced, scrumpy-sodden Cornishman flogging - I've been to Land's End - tee-shirts. Great reason to trek all the way in there.

Not now, Drover, not now.

Land's End now has an Experience parked there.

We were given a good tip when in Cornwall. Go to Sennen Cove and a few hours of bracing cliff top walk will take you to Lands End, avoiding the fee and much of the tackiness. And you get a lot longer to enjoy the views.

LoL Until today I though Cockle Creek was a place that had been made up by the Oz branch TT. :) It was only day when I realised today that it was a real place that I looked it up and discovered that I have actually been there, I think.

Don't let the developers hear you joking about developing the area, they might take you seriously. :(

and Cockle Creek isn't the most southerly point of Australia.

I thought Land's End was meant to be the most westerly? (Not counting the Scilly Isles). Isn't The Lizard the most southerly (also Cornwall)

I thought Cornwall stuck out further than Wales? And they never count NI in this pissing contest. Just GB.

Here they all are.
Yep, Land's End most westerly England; The Lizard most southerly England and GB (of course); Point of Ardnamurchan - most westerly point GB.

Gosh.

Cockle Creek is as far south as you can drive unless you go bush. I think it would be safe to say they also have the most southerly outdoor BBQ facilities in Australia. No wait, I tell a lie, I think the former lighthouse keeper on Maatsyker Island had one as well.
