Despite the fabulous name , this is not about a Spike Milligan or Barry Humphreys character.There really was an Eccleston Frederick Du Faur. He left a wonderful legacy to his adopted city of Sydney.In his quiet methodical way he made his dreams come true and left Sydney a better place than found it.As if being one of the founders of the Art Gallery of NSW was not enough, he was the driving force behind the creation of the Kuringai Chase National Park. That preserved a large area of rugged native bushland on Sydneys northern edge.A gift for the ages!!
