Could this be the spot where the first car in Petrie was repaired? We are standing at Gordon Jackson Lookout. A place where history and nature intertwine, offering breathtaking views. This lookout, named after a local legend, Gordon Jackson, provides a glimpse into the past. Gordon, a pioneer in his own right, established the first motor garage in Petrie in 1929: the ‘North Pine Service Station’. Imagine the roar of those early automobiles echoing through the valley. The lookout also quietly commemorates the Jackson family, early settlers who owned land in this area. But this land holds stories that stretch even further back. Long before cars, the Duffield family called this place home. As you soak in the panorama imagine their humble beginnings here in the 1860s. The spirit of these pioneers lives on at Gordon Jackson Lookout.
