| Description |
Soon after establishing a settlement at Sydney Cove in Gadigal country, the British began exploring upriver and to the north and south, finding desirable land for farming, finding a connection to the Hawkesbury River, and finding the Blue Mountains impassable. These explorations lead to conflict with Gadigal and Darug people. This points show locations at the far extent of several different journeys. They are derived from the diary of Watkin Tench and other sources. |
