03 THE STORY

About this print

A wall-mounted heater stands inside a room at Callan Park. The casing is grey-painted steel, the surface marked by rust where the paint has lifted. The heater is fitted to the wall on its original mounting bracket, the supply pipework still attached. The wall around the heater is plastered and painted, the paint peeling in patches. The room around the heater is empty.

Callan Park merged with Broughton Hall to form Rozelle Hospital in 1976. Full hospital closure followed on 30 April 2008. The site, on the Iron Cove foreshore at Lilyfield, is now public parkland managed by Greater Sydney Parklands. The Kirkbride Complex, Garryowen House and Broughton Hall were listed on the NSW State Heritage Register in April 1999.

04 FROM THE FIELD NOTES

Glazed ceramic tiles line the walls from floor to ceiling, their surface catching pale light from a high window. A cast-iron column radiator sits centred beneath the sill, bolted to the floor. To the right, a single tap valve protrudes from the tile. A metal bench runs along the left wall. The floor is grey vinyl, scuffed and lifting at the edges. The room is small, clinical, cold.

2016–2018 · 93 photographs

Dr Frederic Norton Manning rejected the asylum as 'a cemetery for deceased intellects'. In 1876 he toured asylums in England, France, Germany and the United States, returning with drawings of Chartham Down Hospital in Kent. Working with Colonial Architect James Barnet and Botanic Gardens director Charles Moore, he built Australia's first hospital purpose-built for moral therapy treatment on the Iron Cove foreshore.
