The address is wrong, the entrance Road was off Oceanic Drive,where the photo was taken,and the exit Road was off Bold Park Road. The Drive-in site was used for viewing Halley’s comet in 1986. The entrance Road,and exit Road and ramps,(and bases of snack bar/bio box, ticket booth/s,and screen still there,next to the Town of Cambridge Shire offices. I think it is planed to include the Drive-in site in the Town of Cambridge(or Bold Park) heritage trail?
The Skyline Drive-in opened on 17/11/1955 with Broken lance, and cartoons(not named),and a traveloge, and newreels. The Drive-in closed on 5/4/1986 with Legend,and The jewel of the Nile.
