Hobart: Aurthur Circus.
The sign says "Hobart's Parks. Arthur Circus. Part of an original grant to the
Reverend Robert Kingswood [?], this site was purchased by Governor Sir George
Arthur in 1829. When he resold the land almost 20 years later, the auction
advertisment described "Delectable building sites in a neighbourhood that will
inevitably become the Resort of the Beau Monde.""

The "tesselated pavements" at Eaglehawk Neck. The higher ones ("pans") have
raised boundaries, the lower ("loaves") ones raised centres, both formed by
salt water erosion.
