History edit

Mowbray Park is named for Thomas Mowbray, a presbyterian minister who had been minister at the now heritage-listed Mowbraytown Presbyterian Church in the East Brisbane area (and formerly of the Blackridge Parish Church, Scotland).[3]

The wharf sustained moderate damage during the January 2011 Brisbane floods.[4] It reopened after repairs on 14 February 2011.[5][6]
