Early Hobart Town Wharf Photographs

My first steps on terra firma australis were at the Hobart Town wharf when I walked off the convict ship Equestrian in 1852. The Hobart Town wharf has a special place in my heart. Below are some early photographs of the Hobart Town wharf area from the Archives Office of Tasmania (site).
