The Basin-Olinda and Sheffield Roads and a loose bag hung
there to collect mail.
Also site of the "Bert Chandler Gardens" which
was a display and retail outlet for Como Nurseries (see
above).

retained.
- Site of early settler William Chandler
and family first home called "Fern Glen". Later
the name was changed to Como as Fern Glen was the name of
another property in The Basin.

- Forest Road. Created in 1927 in the
Forest Heights Estate. Was originally called New Forest
Road. Previously, there was no road into The Basin along
this route.
- Toorak Avenue. When first surveyed, this
section and Old Forest Road were known as a
"Government Road" and the road extended over
Mountain Highway and joined with Wicks Road. This was
before Mountain Highway and Toorak Avenue existed.
Toorak Avenue was created later in the Schneider Estate
and this section and Old Forest Road were known as Forest
Road.
The section of road down to Mountain Highway that joined
with Wicks Road was later reclaimed and is now vacant
land.
- When Inverness Avenue was first created
in the Schneider's Estate, the top end could not be
accessed from either Claremont Avenue or Mountain
Highway. From Claremont Avenue, there was no creek
crossing (created in 1984) and from Mountain Highway
there was no official access until a block of land was
purchased (see Places of Interest No. 65).
This unofficial track was created by early residents to
gain access from Mountain Highway.
In 2002, the track still exists but is not in use.
