Very close now - but not Penghana Hill.

Edit - it is a small hill with a special object on top - and has some name association with an abandoned mine in/near South Forest

You seem to be circling the target. [The name of this particular spot is not on The List]

To assist - this is a wider view from the same spot in the same direction:

By the way both of those photos look fantastic.

It looks like somewhere in the Derwent estuary, Bruny Island, Coningham, Tasman Peninsula or some such. Is it near the Coal Mines on the Tasman Peninsula?

Nope. This is taken outside of my usual playground.
The range on the left hand side aught to be a good clue.....

Yes very good. This is taken about 1km from Mt Gell along the Cheyne Range looking back to the King Willies.

Yeh - on review I think it might be Mt Beecroft.
My view in the reverse direction picks up that mountain in the middle.
