  It's worth noting that this is taken from within the Dawes Point Battery walls. See cannon mounting at mid-right of shot.

  [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] I am sure you mean the Mercantile Rowing Club, shown on this 1895 interactive map (usually reliable in detail) as "M.R.C." www.nla.gov.au/apps/cdview?pi=nla.map-rm3443-sd&rgn=0...

  John Cowper Thanks for identifying all these landmarks, you've been busy! AB

• colinbm said:

  The one marked Blues Point on the left is actually McMahons Point

• Julie Storry said:

  This was taken before 1911 beause the DP Baths is still in-situ. After 1911 it was replaced by Walsh Bay 1 (aka Pier-1).

• Philip Cohen said:

  This is NOT a view from "Observatory Hill"! It has to be from a point closer to and overlooking Dawes Point as, obviously, it is directly overlooking that Point; that's the northern most end of Lower Fort Street in the left foreground; it's more likely taken from the top of the old Miles building in Gloucester Street … s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/nswsa-content/images/4481...
