He named it in honour of Peter Belches, a member of the exploring party who was Third Lieutenant on Stirling's ship, HMS Success.[2][3] While Point Belches now refers to a small feature on the eastern side of the peninsula, Stirling almost certainly intended the name to refer to the entire peninsula.[1][2][4] The Old Mill on the peninsula is identified in early sources as being on Point Belches.[2][5][6] Furthermore, historic plans mark Point Belches north of Miller’s Pool on the opposite side of Pool Neck to its contemporary location east of Miller's Pool.[4][7][8] The peninsula itself is now commonly referred to as Mill Point, although strictly speaking this name also refers to a smaller feature, on the western side of the peninsula.[1][2] Notes1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url=https://www.transport.wa.gov.au/mediaFiles/marine/MAC_G_Boating_SwanCanningRiver.pdf |title=Swan Canning Riverpark Boating Guide |date={{date|Dec 2017}} |website=Department of Transport |publisher=Government of Western Australia |access-date={{date|4 Aug 2018}} }} {{coord|-31.96609|115.84979|display=title|format=dms}}{{PerthAU-geo-stub}}2. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web|url=https://www.dpaw.wa.gov.au/images/documents/conservation-management/riverpark/about/Landscape%20description%20precinct%207.pdf|title=Swan River System Landscape Description, Precinct 7 (South Perth – Canning Bridge to the Causeway)|date={{date|September 1997}}|website=Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions|publisher=Government of Western Australia|access-date={{date|4 Aug 2018}}}} 3. ^{{cite wikisource |title=An Account of the Expedition of H.M.S.
