Shipwright's Point in years gone by was the location for cheery regattas, where people would come by boat, horse and cart to enjoy the events. 'Honeywood' is the last remaining home in this setting, which was also home to the local general store/jam store which resided next to 'Honeywood'. A hotel was also located on the southern side and a large wooden jetty jutting out into the river was a hub of activity, the remnants remaining, a reminder of yesteryear.
