  • Bike Week – Bicycle Tasmania Hobart Rivulet Ride – Historical Notes To
    Bike Week – Bicycle Tasmania Hobart Rivulet Ride – Historical Notes Based on notes complied by Ken White from data supplied from Consultant Tony Rayner’s Historical Study 1988 to The Hobart City Council, and also on Hobart City Council information boards located along the Linear Park. To understand the Hobart Rivulet it is easier to split it into three sections; being: • The Wapping section up to the present Royal Hobart Hospital in Argyle Street. • The town section south to Barrack Street. • The industrial section above Molle St. All three sections are very much part of the whole as they lap over and intertwine to create a story bigger in many ways than Sullivans Cove or Battery Point. The Hobart Rivulet industrial area predates Battery Point by many years We will be riding on the section of The Rivulet above Barrack Street and especially what we know now-days as the Hobart Rivulet Linear Park. The more one knows about the Hobart Rivulet above Barrack Street the more it is to wonder at the sheer energy of the early settlers to survive and prosper in a foreign land albeit a land that had an abundance of natural resources. The top section of the Hobart Rivulet in the early 1800s has been described as the Silicon Valley of Tasmania and therefore Australia as a whole. One such resource was the water of the Rivulet to drive corn mills and facilitate the working of woollen mills, saw mills, tanneries, breweries, distilleries and a host of other manufacturing enterprises such as those centred around the Female Factory.
