Yep, Woolloomooloo Bay and Potts Point atop the ridge. I think the date range can be narrowed considerably, to before 1900. It is difficult to see - because of the trees - whether Brons Wharf or Admiralty Wharf is present. Certainly neither Wharf 5 nor Wharf 10 sheds sre there. The centre wharf is pier only without the small shed that stood between W5 and W10. Over on the PP side, there is no start on W1-W4, and W1 was started during 1899.,

Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons Yes, it is amazing - I think it was a dead link before. Fascinating to see all around the innards too - most of the fittings must have been changed over the years, but never mind that! I am constantly surprised at where the interweb can take us ...
