Strangely philosophical, and very provocative. Letting a ruin ‘talk’ to you, feeling what it says. A most enjoyable, reflective clip, Angus. Thank you.
Another good video Angus. Out of interest, do you know what the big concrete slab that's under the pink glass art installation was from? It's a pretty sizable slab but obviously predates the art installation and doesn't seem to be tied to the docking pontoon
Wilkinson's Point contains the "ruins" from the casting yard from the Bowen Bridge from 1979-83. You can see the outlines of the caisson coffer rings and other elements of the match cast segmental box girder bridge before these elements were floated down on barges.
Such interesting and arresting reflections on Hobart’s history, more to notice and consider as we drive or walk around. I wonder too what is under the concrete slabs in our own small garden, apart from Victorian sewer pipes. Thank you again.
Thank you again. Fascinating stuff. I had never seen the Grove mansion before although I visit around there a lot and vaguely recall it burning down. It's such a shame we haven't been a bit more careful with our recent heritage.
Loving your in depth and sometimes very unknown facts on Hobart’s past, so much history forgotten or “misplaced” in regards to the mansion in the lumber yard. Look forward to more videos like this as I just learnt about the old lime factory on the hill of old Collinsville road.
Would like to find out about the 2 wooden “Hobart City” signs in the bush on the left as you leave Lenah Valley on Kalamg Ave. 1 on the top of the hill and one at the bottom before the right hand bend.
The Rosella factory became the warehouse for the old SupaValu foodstore chain, and Purity Supermarket warehouse prior to their move to Lampton Avenue, the floor of which I carted premixed concrete to. When Purity was bought by Woolworths it became their warehouse. Its now the SeaRoad Transport depot.
Can you go down the Huon and do some history there as in the old monastery at copper alley bay and where the old jettys where, why Cygnet was called Lovett. There is lots of history here, something you will really be able to sink your teeth in away from the Yuppie eateries.
I was born in Hobart, haven't been there for years. Angus you gave a funny strange feelin of home sickness.. Typical Tasmanian so laid back almost horizontal..well done mate 👍 …
The glass at GASP cost 15k to replace apparently. Since it opened 10 years ago they've had to replace about 100, $1.5m wasted. It does look cool all shattered though but not when it's just smashed. I wish they would start on the rest of the Wilkinsons point redevelopment
Angus You do amazing good work on this channel and Through Research, and document a point in time like you do is brilliant. Plus the pictures you find are awesome and the way you do your filming is excellent. Thank You sir. Thank You 🙏🏽.
I’m early tonight… great videos once gain mate.

Another fascinating video. Thanks Angus.
One day if I see you make a video, I'm totally gonna beep the horn. 🤣🤣
I wondered if you were going to get to the ruin at McKay's Timber. And now you have.
Wish they kept the old gaol in town. It would be amazing attraction now . Great video as always ☺️
Awesome video again Angus – keep them coming. Love the Dog.
Thanks!

I've walked my dog on Wilkinson's so many times – but now I'll never look at it the same way again!

I never thought I'd find historical based videos on hobart yet here we are, love your videos keep up the good work.
Love this series!
Do you have anything on the old mill ruins half-way up Collinsvale Road?
Another wonderful story, thanks Angus.
never seen a white tassie devil before. quiet too. very cool.
Good stuff Angus!

Thank you again.
Another great video! ❤️
That place with the pink glass looks like it deserves its own video?
Excelent….every video is well made and enjoyable to watch, looking forward to many more….
You never fail to educate us on Hobarts history. Fantastic thank you.
Guessing that's the brickyards on the Alum Cliffs track, good spot
Another great episode Angus.
Enjoyed the history as well as the locations you took us too. 👍🏽🙏🏽👏
Nice video, thank you for your work and efforts in making us more informed on the history of a beautiful part of Australia.
Have checked out the ruin of the Grove house from Stoneman's nursery a couple of times. Such a shame.
A great short doco again!!!
I remember watching the movie Jaws at the drive in theatre

The assorted bins at the foot of the old jam factory chimney reveals what people really think of it
Such a travesty. The Grove was a lovely property. Another great video Angus. We are being spoilt.
Drone work looking good👍
fascinating!

I miss the drive in. Can't have anything nice re: Wilkinson point 😥. 👏👏👌

it's weird to thinks about how ive been to the same places as him and how close he has been to my house in this video
Thanks for your efforts.
