Location

Battery Point is a suburb of the city of Hobart, which is immediately south of the central business district. It is named after the battery of guns which were established on the point in 1818 as part of the Hobart coastal defences and was decommissioned after an 1878 review of Hobart's defences found that its location would tend to draw an enemy's fire onto the surrounding residential neighbourhood. The site was subsequently handed over to the Hobart City Council as a place of recreation and amusement. 

The area is generally known as one of the city's more prestigious suburbs and adjoins the waterfront Salamanca area as well as the nearby prestigious suburb of Sandy Bay.
