Agar Steps

                                 

The Agar steps were built in 1870 and link Kent St with Observatory Hill in Sydney.  They were named after a local identity Thomas Agar who was born in 1829. 
The steps overlooked the quarry where many of the local houses sourced their sandstone.  
Sydney Sketch Club visited here and you can see a sketcher sitting in the shadows on the right lower corner.
