The Bhor (or Bhore) Ghat, the main pass over the Western Ghats and the primary means of communication between the coast and the Deccan, in the north of Maharashtra. From Robert Grindlay's (1786-1877) 'Scenery, costumes and architecture, chiefly on the western side of India,' 1826-30. Grindlay, founder of the ANZ Grindlays Bank, came to India in 1803, aged only 17, and worked with the East India Company, serving with the Seventh Bombay Native Infantry from 1804-1820. William Westall (1781-1850) had travelled to Australia as artist for the Flinders expedition. Westall found the Australian landscape boring, and so, when the expedition broke up after the lead ship, the 'Investigator', was condemned, Westall travelled to India. This was without the permission of his employers, the Admiralty, who sacked him, although they still paid him to complete nine full oil paintings of his sketches of Australia. Abbey Travel 442.
