Battery Point, one of Hobarts inner-city suburbs takes
its name from the battery of guns established in 1818 on the
promontory of land (since known as Battery Point).
It is
close to the site of the present CSIRO Oceanographic
laboratories on Castray Esplanade, of which sections still
stand. For Hobart and Battery Point accommodation
