A narrow corridor leads to a small bathroom. Paint peels from both walls in thick, curling sheets, exposing bare plaster beneath. The floor is vinyl tile, warped and lifting at the edges, scattered with debris. A blue-painted door frame marks the threshold. Beyond it, white ceramic tiles line the bathroom walls. A wall-mounted sink remains fixed in place, its plumbing still attached. Soft light enters through a window at the far end.

The series
Lewisham Hospital
Lewisham Hospital was opened on 9 June 1889 by Cardinal Patrick Francis Moran, on the site where the Little Company of Mary -- the Blue Nuns -- had established their Sydney convent in 1887. Originally named the Children's Hospital of the Holy Child, it admitted women and children only until male patients were accepted from 1912. Over the following decades it became one of Sydney's main general hospitals and nurse training schools. It closed in 1988, a century of Catholic healthcare on one block of West Street, Lewisham. The Lost Collective photographs are of the novitiate building, the wing where new entrants to the order were trained, which sits within the broader hospital, convent, and grounds complex. The historic complex is listed as a local heritage item under the Inner West LEP (formerly Marrickville LEP 2011), within the Lewisham North Precinct. The convent chapel, in a revival Byzantine style with a 1927 Möller pipe organ, still stands on the site.
