Now let�s go for some rustic shopping at stalls (or market stands as the Americans call it). In the 1830s the stony slopes of Battery Point were quarried away to build the wharf to the south of Sullivans Cove, and warehouses of magnificently solid appearance were erected to serve the ships docked there. Long since vacated, these superb sandstone sandstone structures have happily found new users as boutiques, craft studios, galleries, restaurants, antique dealers and bookstores. Also, on every Saturday morning, the place is transformed by hte arrival of an army of stallholders offering wares of incredible variety. A must for every visitor to Hobart!
