This item is a pencil sketch of Young's Point. On the paper backing of the frame which has been removed the following is written: "Young's Point - Edward Roper c 1882? from his sketchbook, donated by Gordon Roper.

There is some speculation as to whether the name Edward Roper should have been Edward Caddy.
