According to ListMap that’s in Wynyard. If you draw a straight line from there, through the geographic centre of Tasmania and on to the coast, then cross a short stretch of water and a bit more land and you’ll be close to this location. Miles from Wynyard.

I guess that’s near enough. It’s not at Cape Queen Elizabeth, it’s a picture of Mars Bluff from Miles Beach where the arch is.

Very generous Graham. I'll blame Google, everything seemed to be labelled Cape Queen Elizabeth in reference to the arch.
And I forgot about the bluff photo. Unfortunately I didn't visit that spot on our one trip to Bruny.

I don't know where your stranded bridge is, but it really reminded me of this old chestnut:

Are you sure that tree is a chestnut? Looks more like an oak to me.

Interestingly, a tree name also figures slightly in my location.

Is that the old bridge over the Pine River at Little Pine?

I think it's the Little Pine River, but yes - northern end of Little Pine Lagoon. Well built bridge, but impossible to use without wading. Maybe the water's a bit lower now ...

I haven’t been up there in a while but I’ve heard they gave it a makeover a year or two ago.

I am sorry
I will endeavour to be more diligent.
