It was originally one of Sydney's Harbour Islands, but it is now connected to the mainland by a constructed isthmus. The area is now a council reserve, open to the public and there is an interpretive bushland walk, playground and picnic area at the site. HistoryBerry Island was part of a grant of land made by Governor Macquarie to Alexander Berry and Edward Wollstonecraft in 1820 [1] and is named after Alexander Berry.[2] The island was first linked to the mainland by stone causeway over the mudflats. During the 1960s the land between the island and the mainland was reclaimed and made into a grassed area.[2] [3]Aboriginal relicsBerry Island contains aboriginal carvings, middens, a smoke stained cave and a stone tool grinding site.[4] It has a 20-minute (750 metre) loop walk with interpretive signage describing the aboriginal significance of points around the island.
