04 FROM THE FIELD NOTES

A timber-decked rail cart sits low on iron wheels, bolted to a narrow-gauge track that runs the length of the magazine. The planks are split and weathered dark at the edges. Military ammunition cases stack high along both walls, olive and black, their metal latches dull under fluorescent light. The barrel-vaulted ceiling curves overhead, painted white, compressing the space into a long tunnel. Yellow line markings stripe the concrete floor.

Newington Armory

2019 · 21 photographs

The Newington Armory operated as a Royal Australian Navy munitions depot from 1897 until decommissioning in 1999. Sandstone and brick magazines line the Parramatta River foreshore, their walls a metre thick in places, engineered to contain the force of an accidental detonation. The site now sits within Sydney Olympic Park, its original stores largely intact, paint peeling from heavy timber doors, river light filtering through narrow vents cut into stone.
