Blackwall was, between 1862 and 1913, the site of the Rock Davis shipyard, and over 120 wooden-hulled vessels were built there. Among the best known were the fast Sydney Harbour ferry, Vaucluse, built in 1905, Queen Bee, a small 'sixty-miler' built in 1907, and the small twin-screw coastal steamer, Belbowrie, built in 1911. The last vessel built there was the ferry, Woollahra.
The naming of Blackwall is credited to Rock Davis, who named it after Blackwall, London, which was also a centre of shipbuilding.
