03 THE STORY

About this print

A small empty room at Kenmore. The walls are painted deep red, the back wall papered in a plaid pattern. A long ornate cast-iron radiator runs along the floor at the base of one wall. The ceiling is pressed metal. A single lampshade hangs from the centre of the ceiling. The room is otherwise empty.

The complex has been largely vacant since the Commonwealth sale in 2003. Kenmore opened in 1895 as the first purpose-built complete complex for mental health care in rural NSW, designed by Walter Liberty Vernon, the first NSW Government Architect. The cast-iron radiators in the residential buildings date from the original heating fabric of the complex. Kenmore was added to the NSW State Heritage Register on 1 April 2005, item 2930022. The State Heritage listing remains active.

04 FROM THE FIELD NOTES

A cast-iron column radiator sits against the far wall, painted the same deep oxblood as the room. Dark streaks of moisture damage run down the plaster above it. The pressed metal ceiling holds a single pendant light fitting, its shade cracked and discoloured. Green check-patterned wallpaper frames a six-pane sash window. Daylight falls across a bare concrete floor scattered with grit and dust. Paint curls away from the cornice in thick strips.
