Part of a panorama of Wollongong by John Rae, dated 1851 (photographed 1880). The original watercolour is in the Dixson Galleries collection at the State Library of NSW.

Jon Rae is one of beachcomber australia's heroes (after John Degotardi, Jnr. of course).

... and J. S. Bach.

Good find, Mr Pellethepoet !
I wonder if the RAHS will take ANY notice ...
pellethepoet said:
Three years from now we'll still be wondering ...
RAHS said:
Thank you for the comments, and we do take notice of these valued contributions. We currently have a new, dedicated volunteer who will be able to spend more time responding to your comments, something that we haven't done a lot of in recent times, due to being a small staff and increasingly busy with the day to day activities of the RAHS. We do appreciate your input.

Newcastle - Rough sketch of Newcastle Harbour shewing breakwater and surrounds

NB Mapwatchers ... north is down! Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection Date nitpick - I think 9/1/1850 is a better date for the map; it is part of a report in response to the Colonial Secretary's letter of 11/10/1849. Trouble is that shows up as a different decade in Trove searches etc. Interesting because it shows what looks like a complete "Macquarie Pier", the breakwater between between Nobbys and the Signal Station (now Fort Scratchley), first completed in 1846.
