Foxbat - Henry Silva (1977) - Magazine Gap, The Peak

About a year ago I put up this post for Black Cobra Woman and it was an establishing shot used in the film for the residence of Jack Palance and his brother (played by Gabriele Tinti). The bluray version of Foxbat has scene that I don't recall from the dvd release. It's a quick shot from almost the same angle/position as the Black Cobra Woman one as Henry Silva's car drives down Peak Road towards Magazine Gap Road.

The large property on the corner is/was #40 Peak Road and as the camera pans to the right towards the harbour we can also see Katoomba in the last three screencaps.

I seem to recall my old boss's friend going to have a look at renting one of the new houses built on this site, circa 2005. It looks like this was some sort of staff residential quarters at the time of Foxbat.

I have never seen a sports ground that size attached to a private house and ringed in with such tall steel chain link fencing. What is that massive chute running down the upper floor and what is it connecting to below? This property honestly looks creepy.
