Uredale Point Monument is marked with a stone cairn located on the tip of the Vancouver Peninsula marking the spot where Captain George Vancouver landed in 1791. He raised the British flag and claimed the southwestern part of Australia for King George III. He named it Point Possession, and today it's officially known as Uredale Point. The marker also marks the peak of the granite dome, which is the highest natural point of Uredale Point. From here, the scenery is stunning, with 360-degree views across King George Sound, the Albany coastline, and Mount Clarenc.
