Now standing in Watling Street, one of the most unseen hero's of English history. It was Arthur Phillips who sailed from Portsmouth with the first thousand settlers to colonise Australia, first landing at Botany Bay, before moving a little north into what he described as "the finest harbour in the world," or what we now know as Sydney. One of the brass plates shows five men raising the flag at Sydney, on Wednesday 23 January 1788, the other shows the official occasion three days later when New South Wales was founded.
