In addition to its natural and scenic values, its cultural significance includes numerous Aboriginal middens, the site of Middle Harbour\u2019s first farm, limited remains of Roseville Baths and the old Roseville Bridge; and extensive stone walking tracks, steps, walls and terraced gardens constructed during the 1930s Depression.<\/p>\n The park has been popular since the 1920s for passive recreational activities.
