Both land and sea access to the South-East were transformed in the 1850s. Sea access has been an issue from first European settlement to the present, as there are very few sheltered harbours anywhere on the South-East coastline. When the first pastoralists were arriving, the only port was Greytown (now Southend) on Rivoli Bay, established in 1846. ................
