Gladesville Hospital, 1883

State Records NSW posted a photo:

Gladesville Hospital, 1883

Building at Gladesville Hospital
Dated: c. 01/01/1883
Digital ID: 4481_a026_000145

In 1838 the lunatic asylum was moved from Liverpool to Tarban Creek, Gladesville and the first patients were transferred from Liverpool Asylum and the Female Factory, Parramatta. It accepted patients from Victoria up until 1848 when the Yarra Bend asylum was opened. By the mid 1960s the institution was known simply as Gladesville Hospital. In 1993 premises at Gladesville Hospital and Macquarie Hospital were revoked as hospitals, and were amalgamated to form the Gladesville Macquarie Hospital.

This series of photographs was taken by officers of the Government Printing Office during the years 1860s-c.1920. The photographs cover a wide variety of subjects, for example, public buildings, railways, tramways, street scenes, harbour views, Sydney University, groups of people, ships, public occasions, the Botanic Gardens, military camps, wharves, dams and waterways, statues and slums.

You can use this image for research and study. We are also happy for you to use our Flickr photos on your blog or website - all we ask is that you cite (and link to) them using the Digital ID number that is listed in the image description. This ensures visitors can get back to the original source. We'd love to see any State Records items you feature on your blog so make sure you drop us an email with a link to your post.

If you wish to reproduce this image for other purposes please contact us.

Many other photos in our collection are available to view and browse on our website using Photo Investigator.
