Mrs Macquarie's Chair

This guide to Mrs Macquarie's Chair in Sydney tells of the sandstone seat carved into the point for Elizabeth Macquarie, wife of governor Lachlan Macquarie, who is said to have sat here watching for ships from Scotland. It follows the road her husband built her through the domain between 1813 and 1816, and the plaque nearby that still credits her today. Sit where she sat and look out across the harbour as you listen.
