Paddlers Park, a transformed outdoor space with a fascinating history, was once a bustling quarry site. Today, the remnants of its past can be glimpsed in the grand house on Pan Point, constructed during the 1840s for the Clerk of Works overseeing the harbor construction. This impressive structure also served as a 'tommy shop,' where laborers received wages and exchanged them for goods.
