From the humble first cottages to the fine sandstone mansions of prominent people, Battery Point’s dense mix of buildings are a tangible expression of the co-existence of working class and wealthy privilege between 1805 and 1850. Walk the streets and hear the stories behind the simple Georgian workers cottages, the elegant Regency mansions, and the picturesque Victorian Gothic houses.
