View from the battery looking out in the direction of Mrs Macquarie's Chair. There are two cannons and two triangular piles of cannonballs at the battery. The Fort Macquarie headland (Bennelong Point) is visible in the far left. Three ships, the HMS Challenger, HMS Blanche, and HMS Clio, are visible sailing across the water between the battery and distant Point.
