In the late 19th century, a German noble called Baron Karl von Bieren secured a government loan to build a gunpowder factory up in the hills of Ingleside. The venture went bust before any gunpowder was actually produced and von Bieren took the money and fled to Melbourne where he caught a ship to America. Unfortunately for von Bieren, the ship had to stop in Sydney for a refuel, and a police officer from Narrabeen boarded the ship and arrested him. The powderworks factory fell into disrepair and was never used. Powderworks Road, a major road in the area, takes it's name from von Bieren's factory.
