Plaque about Rockingham Town on the Rockingham Waterfront Pioneer Rotary Walk in Rockingham, Western Australia. It reads, "Rockingham is situated on the Mangles Bay, seventeen miles south of Fremantle and at the Southern end of Cockburn Sound. Beyond the Sound, three miles distance from Mangles Bay, lies long, narrow Garden Island, which first came into history in 1801 when sighted by a French expedition under Commodore Nicolas Baudin."
