Ben Bennett Botanical Park
Originally called the Botanical Gardens, the five hectare site was brought to the attention of the Landsborough Shire Council by then Councillor Ben Bennett, who realised the need to preserve such a refuge in a fast developing neighbourhood. The name of the Botanical Gardens was later changed to Ben Bennett Park, in Councillor Bennett’s honour. Ben served on the Landsborough Shire Council from 1964 to 1967.
