This is a 4 metre high wooden structure next to a water reservoir that has ready access for vehicles. Built before 1990.
This is a sign on one of the posts explaining the name of the lookout, that reads:
[Rotary International logo]
"THE NORMAN SHARPE ROTARY LOOKOUT
In appreciation of services given to the community of Ballina
Norman Sharpe
Charter Member and Past President of the
Rotary Club of Ballina
J. Zentveld
President 1990"

There are some interesting holes in some of the posts, so that you, or the children, will enjoy looking through (like 'peep-holes') to different areas around Ballina - tho most are looking at nearby trees now!.
