Peeling paint splits the wall of a derelict ward inside Lewisham Hospital. This once-vital institution, opened by the Little Company of Mary in 1889, closed its doors in 1993, leaving behind layers of decay.
Read the story behind this series →Size Guide
Two frosted-glass windows sit on adjacent walls, their dark timber frames squaring off dull grey light. The corner between them splits the room into unequal halves. Ceiling plaster peels away in broad curls, dropping pale fragments across green carpet worn flat and stained black in patches. A fluorescent fitting hangs dead on the left ceiling. A wooden cupboard door stands closed on the far right wall. The air looks thick, still, cold. Lewisham Hospital operated as a private Catholic hospital from 1941, run by the Sisters of the Little Company of Mary. The facility served Sydney's inner west for decades before closing in 2002. The building sat vacant for years, its interior steadily deteriorating from moisture and neglect.
