Legends say that Ben Buckler was named after a convict who inhabited a cave in the cliffs at North Bondi and died after a fall from a ledge.

Ben Buckler is the location of the Ben Buckler Gun Battery, which was built in 1892 and was excavated by the waterboard and then reburied . [ [http://www.heritage.nsw.gov.au/07_subnav_02_2.cfm?itemid=5056455 Heritage Branch Website - Listing Heritage Items - State Heritage Register - Item View ] ]
