(c)hobartdaily.com - A gun at the Bellerive Battery

At various points in the history of Hobart there were fears of invasion. At one time it was the French and another the Russians. I am not sure how realistic the fears were but it lead to the building of a network of gun batteries to defend the city including Bellerive shown in the picture.. None ever fired a shot in anger.
