Why this spot
Sydney's densest industrial waterfront: Mort's Dock 1855-1959, foundries, a harbour coal mine and ferry wharves, now parkland over the old yards
Industrial waterfront history is well documented, but foreshore sea glass and shard picking here rests on inference from 120 years of harbourside industry, not on published finds accounts
