The village of
Rosevears is located on the western banks of the Tamar River, 17 km north of
Launceston.
Originally established as a ship building port, it was here that the
schooner ‘Rebecca’ was built. This was the vessel belonging to early pioneer and
explorer John Batman and which was to carry him across the Bass Strait in 1835,
leading to the creation of Melbourne.=
