Why this spot
Whitestone Victorian boom port of the 1860s-1880s grain and frozen-meat trade, harbour built on reclamation beside the intact Harbour-Tyne heritage precinct
Victorian port and reclamation are thoroughly documented, but specific foreshore bottle or relic finds here rest on historical inference, so tier 3
