Lonely Planet review for Battery Point

An empty rum bottle’s throw from the once notorious Sullivans Cove waterfront is a nest of tiny 19th-century cottages and laneways, packed together like herring fillets in a can. This is the old maritime village of Battery Point and its name derives from the 1818 gun battery that stood on the promontory, protecting Hobart Town from nautical threats both real and imagined.
