Board urged relocation of Melbourne observatories to Botanic Hill site
The Board of Visitors recommends moving the Melbourne Magnetical and Astronomical Observatories from their current sites to a single national observatory near the Botanic Museum on a hill top. They cite disturbances from nearby works and iron structures, urging government funding of about £1000 to establish the site and ensure continued colonial astronomical and magnetic surveys.
