1924 -- Selma Park, Union Steamship Company Holiday camp

After the Union Steamship Company purchased the All Red Line properties at Selma on October 4, 1917 it built cottages and was ready for business as a summer resort by 1919. The Company built a fine dance hall high up on the slope and a regular steamship service attracted many holiday makers, some of whom were accommodated in these Company tents, pictured in 1924.
