03 THE STORY

About this print

Three matching tall sash windows in symmetrical arrangement along the wall of one of the ward buildings at Kenmore. The walls are pale green, the paint peeling back to bare plaster across patches of damp. Damaged ceiling tiles hang above the windows. A cast-iron radiator runs along the floor below the central window. The windows are timber-framed, the panes intact across all three.

Kenmore opened in 1895 with capacity for 700 patients across 19 wards, the first purpose-built complete complex for mental health care in rural NSW. The wards were sized and fitted for the design population at opening. The complex was designed by Walter Liberty Vernon, the first NSW Government Architect. The Commonwealth sold the property in 2003 and the NSW State Heritage Register listing followed on 1 April 2005, item 2930022.

04 FROM THE FIELD NOTES

Three windows set into concrete walls. Each pane is divided by heavy mullions, the glass still intact, letting weak daylight fall across the floor in pale rectangles. The ceiling tiles sag and buckle. Several have collapsed entirely, exposing ductwork and wiring above. Dark mould spreads across the concrete floor in thick patches, organic and wet-looking. A heater unit sits against the far right wall, disconnected. The room is stripped bare. No furniture. No fixtures. Just damp air and spore growth.

Kenmore Asylum

Kenmore Asylum opened on Taralga Road, Goulburn, in 1895 as the first purpose-built complete mental health complex in rural New South Wales. The site was acquired in 1879 under the same Inspector-General who initiated Callan Park. The hospital closed around 2003 and was listed on the NSW State Heritage Register in 2005.
