Golly she was a VERY OLD ship - launched 1814, butchered in the late 19th century, and eventually scrapped in 1926 - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Nelson_(1814) The Figurehead is in the Australian National Maritime Museum - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Lord_Nelson_01.jpg

Oh My Giddy Aunt! Just identified another contemporary (c.1895) photo of HMVS NELSON (1814) from that figurehead. From the mysterious Phillips Collection (PhM), as a hulk ... mega-zoomify from.ph/381230

The Colonial Sugar Refining Co. works at Pyrmont (built 1877) and the original (not 1903) Glebe Island Bridge are marked on this interactive 1895 map - www.nla.gov.au/apps/cdview/?pi=nla.map-rm3443-sd&rgn=... .

1929 fuller history of the ship - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/69519134 . From this it seems she was in Sydney from 1901-1908 near Cremorne.
