Sloop passing Fort Denison, Sydney Harbour

  • Tim Martin said:
    Awesome shot! I need to look up that fort, I wonder what uses it was put to. Here in the U.S. ,most of our coastal forts never saw a lot of use, some being made into prisons or put to other uses. One today is part of a national park and a major bird sanctuary.

    There was an excellent book published in 2003 called 'Greycliffe: Stolen Lives" by Steve Brew. Copies would be available through selected Australian libraries.
