	Walkabout - Devonport
		The city of Devonport is the largest and most important port on Tasmania's north coast.
		The port's importance, particularly as far as visitors from the mainland are concerned, is that it is the arrival port for the Spirit of Tasmania I, II and III, the car ferries, which arrive from Melbourne and Sydney.
		One school of thought argues, without any strong evidence, that Devonport was named, with a nice sense of nostalgia for the 'old country', after the coastal town of Devonport in the county of Devon.

	Devonport Football Club Inc.- Where the Magpies Reign - Devonport Tasmania - Australia
		The origins of football in Tasmania's north west coastal region are uncertain.
		On 6 March 1890 the club was formally re-constituted under the name Devonport, and with the exception of the 1900 season, when it went into temporary recess, has been a permanent fixture of the Tasmanian football scene ever since.
		New club Burnie proved Devonport's nemesis on each of its next 2 grand final appearances, in 1927 and 1928, and the following year the entire competition was thrown into disarray when the Forth Bridge, which linked Latrobe and Devonport to the other settlements in the area, washed away.
