From the accompanying plaque:

One Tree Point Light
- Blinking Billy Lighthouse -

This lighthouse was maintained as an aid to navigation by the Marine Board of Hobart from 1900 until 1955 and was preserved as a landmark through the efforts of the late Sir Geoffry Walch.

On February 4 1975 the Marine Board of Hobart transferred ownership of the lighthouse to the Hobart City Council for subsequent leasing to the Maritime Museum of Tasmania.
