Did you know caretakers of the Bay actually lived there? Mr Gibson was one of the early caretakers (1904 -1939) and the steps behind the tea rooms (currently Sopheze) were built by him. His caretaker cottage used to be next door. The stairs used to have rustic wooden (Kauri) railings along the side and an archway at the top. A fence in the same style ran along to terrace edge.
