Golden light streams through a window, illuminating a dusty corridor within the abandoned Lewisham Hospital. This once-bustling medical centre now stands silent, its past etched into peeling paint.

04 FROM THE FIELD NOTES

Two windows face the far wall of an empty room. The left pane glows amber where late sun pushes through a sagging curtain. The right window holds only cold, textured glass. A single bare bulb hangs from the cracked ceiling. The walls show pale plaster above dark timber dados, stripped back to bare render in patches. Coarse carpet covers the floor, matted and discoloured.

Lewisham Hospital

2019 · 26 photographs

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.
