Presbyterian High School, Maitland

Presbyterian High School is a heritage-listed former high school and manse at 12–14 Free Church Street, Maitland, City of Maitland, New South Wales, Australia. It is also known as the Presbyterian High School/Manse. The property is owned by Roman Catholic Church Trustees. It was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999. History The school was first established by William McIntyre, pastor of the West Maitland Presbyterian Church, at the site of the Presbyterian manse. The foundation stone for the school was laid by McIntyre on 25 September 1855; his brother, Rev. Allan McIntyre, was the first rector or principal. Samuel Griffith, future Premier of Queensland and Chief Justice of the High Court of Australia and Charles Pilcher, later a local MP and King's Counsel, were among the students at the school. The Presbyterian High School was relatively short-lived before its closure. A Mrs. Johnson operated a private ladies' high school out of the buildings during the 1870s and 1880s before it was acquired as the first premises of the West Maitland State High School for Girls, which opened on 21 January 1884. The new headmistress, Mary Olsen, was critical of the state of the building as "entirely out of repair and unfit for residence" and stating that the sanitary arrangements were "in such a condition that no students should come to school before improvements had been made". The school operated out of the buildings until the 1893 floods; after which Grossmann House was acquired as a new and less flood-prone school site. By 1929, the premises was again being used as a manse. It was threatened with demolition in the 1980s, but was prevented because of heritage concerns. A Permanent Conservation Order was granted on 8 May 1989. It is now incorporated into All Saints' College. Heritage listing Presbyterian High School was listed on the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999. See also References Bibliography Heritage Office. (not stated).

Archbishop's Palace, Perth

Archbishop's Palace is a heritage-listed building in Perth, Western Australia, used by bishops and archbishops of Perth since 1855. In addition to the cultural value to the Roman Catholic community, the palace is a good example of architect Michael Cavanagh's Federation Academic Classical style, and a prominent landmark within the Victoria Square precinct. It is also known as the Catholic Church Office, and Roman Catholic Presbytery. History In the 1840s, Perth's first bishop, Father Brady, bought a large amount of land around Victoria Square to accommodate the expected growth of the Roman Catholic population. His successor, Father Joseph Serra, was appointed in 1850, and following an 1853 visit to Rome determined he should have an episcopal palace to live in. Work began in late 1855 with Serra making measurements for the palace building, which was constructed by 33 brothers from the Diocese of Perth. The palace's condition had deteriorated by 1911, and the internal furnishings were per Benedictine principles sparse, and without modern comforts and conveniences. Archbishop Clune oversaw a renovation in 1911 to increase accommodation and office space, including a new eastern wing. Architect Michael Cavanagh designed the additions and alteration, which cost £A 7,000, equivalent to A$1.1 million in 2022. Further works in 1936 added a new section on the eastern side to house the increased administrative functions of the Roman Catholic Church. By 2009, the Archbishop's Palace had again deteriorated, almost to a state of dereliction. Construction works in 2009 restored the outside of the building, updated the interior with new electrical and hydraulic services, installed a glass elevator, and built an underground car park. The project, designed by Philip Griffiths Architects and constructed by Colgan Industries, won a 2010 City of Perth Heritage Award and the 2011 MBA Best Historic Restoration and Renovation, as well as the Award for Heritage at the 2012 Western Australian Architecture Awards and the Award for Conservation and Adaptation at the 2012 City of Perth and Heritage Council Awards. Description Archbishop's Palace is located at 17 Victoria Square in the suburb of Perth, adjacent to Victoria Avenue, with a frontage to Hay Street via a down-sloping garden. It is situated south of St Mary's Cathedral, and to the west of the Convent of Mercy, Mercedes College, and the earlier St John's Pro-Cathedral. The palace is three storeys tall with a basement and corrugated asbestos sheets covering the roof. The building has cement rendering, and is modelled in the Federation Academic Classical architectural style. Double storey verandahs, supported by double storey ionic columns, line the northern and southern sides. Architectural features include quoining of corners and second floor windows, scroll brackets for various windows, and stained glass windows.

Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Northampton

The Holy Trinity Anglican Church is a heritage-listed Anglican church in Northampton, Western Australia. Completed in 1908, and further expanded in 1959, the church remains in active use and is part of the Anglican Diocese of North West Australia. Northampton, one of the oldest towns in Western Australia, is classified as a 'historic town' by the National Trust of Australia (WA), with over 200 heritage listings in the shire, including 30 which are listed on the State Register. Holy Trinity Anglican Church was added to the State Register of Heritage Places on the 15th August, 2003. Description Constructed of locally sourced granite, the church building serves as a 'fine example of a Federation Gothic Revival style church,' and has been deemed to be of exceptional significance to the town's heritage. Plans for the construction of the church were passed by February of 1908, with construction beginning in April, and the majority of the work completed around September. It was licensed for use that same month, and then officially consecrated by Bishop Riley on the 18th of January, 1909. The church remained part of the Diocese of Perth until 1928 when the boundaries between Perth and the North West were redrawn. Northampton (along with the territories of Greenough, Geraldton, and Mullewa) were given over to the North West diocese in an effort to provide them with a more stable base of operations.

Peninsula Hotel, Maylands

The Peninsula Hotel is a heritage-listed former hotel in Maylands, Western Australia. Located at 221 Railway Parade opposite Maylands railway station, it was constructed in 1906 by owner Friederich Liebe. The historic Edwardian-style hotel was saved from demolition in the 1970s, becoming a space for several community groups, and later a Dôme cafe. History The Peninsula Hotel was constructed in 1906 to serve the rapidly growing population of Maylands. The area had flourished following the opening of a station on the Midland railway line, around 1898–1899, which serviced Mephan Ferguson's factory that made pipes for the Goldfields Water Supply Scheme. The builder and owner of the hotel was Friederich Liebe, a well-known builder who had previously worked on Queen's Hall and His Majesty's Theatre. By April 1906 construction was well underway, as noted by the local press. The hotel was a well-known landmark in the 1920s and 1930s. It was the start and end points of the Beverley to Perth Cycle Race, initiated by Percy Armstrong. Liebe owned the hotel until his death in 1950, when it became Albert Klein's per Liebe's will. It was soon bought by the Swan Brewery Company in April 1952. By the 1970s, the ageing Peninsula Hotel was in need of renovations. Swan Brewery decided in 1973 to build a new tavern on the adjacent site, to better cater for the modern drinking culture. They planned to demolish the hotel, and replace it with a car park. The Western Australian branch of the National Trust of Australia attempted to convince the company in mid-1973 to preserve the historic hotel, but failed to do so. The Peninsula Association, an independent group of people interested in conserving the hotel, formed around this time; in 1974, following a large public meeting, the association got the company to agree to postpone demolition, pending a feasible proposal for the building preservation and future use. This is one of the earliest examples in Perth of a historic building being saved through public outrage. The hotel was classified by the National Trust on 16 September 1974, and given a permanent entry on the Register of the National Estate on 21 March 1978. It was listed on the State Register of Heritage Places on 23 September 1994, by which time the building was in use as the base of multiple community groups "for social activities and community development". The building was also listed on the City of Stirling's municipal inventory on 17 June 1997, and transferred to the City of Bayswater (along with the suburb of Maylands) on 1 July 1998. Dôme Coffees Australia took over the hotel, as a cafe and their corporate headquarters. They won an award for the restoration in the 2013 Western Australian Heritage Awards.

Greycliffe House

Greycliffe House is an historic, two-storey residential dwelling situated in the Sydney suburb of Vaucluse, New South Wales, Australia. Completed in c. 1852 in the Victorian Rustic Gothic style, Greycliffe House is listed on the now defunct Australian Register of the National Estate and on the State Heritage Inventory. History Greycliffe House was built out of sandstone, with cedar joinery and fine quality plasterwork, for one of the daughters of William Charles Wentworth. Fanny Wentworth married John Reeve, a wealthy migrant from England. Reeve purchased land at Shark Beach from Wentworth and commissioned the architect John Frederick Hilly to build Greycliffe, which was completed circa 1852. A sealed entrance road, originally Greycliffe's carriage dive, leads to the house. Reeve never lived in Greycliffe, preferring to travel to England with his wife. Instead, the house was leased to a string of prominent Sydney citizens, including, initially, Colonel John George Nathaniel Gibbes (1787–1873), MLC, the then Collector of Customs for NSW. The house provided an ideal vantage point for Gibbes, as he could watch the movements of shipping on Sydney Harbour's main channel from its north-facing verandah. Gibbes and his wife, Elizabeth, dwelt at Greycliffe until 1859—when he retired from the Customs Service and they moved to their new home, Yarralumla homestead, in what is now the capital city of Canberra. Yarralumla is now the official residence of the Governor-General of Australia. A succession of private leaseholders lived at Greycliffe after the departure of Mrs and Mrs Gibbes. In 1911, the house was transferred to public ownership and given over by the New South Wales Government for use as a hospital for babies and then as a mothercraft centre. Then, in 1978, the house was added to the Sydney Harbour National Park along with the recreational area surrounding it known as Nielsen Park. As it stands today, Greycliffe is a large, elaborate and well-preserved neo-Gothic Victorian house which retains unobstructed water views across to the northern shore of Sydney Harbour. It boasts multiple gables, a long entrance hall, a stately staircase and carved barge boards. Stables adjoin at the rear and the residence's gardens tumble down to the beachfront, while natural bushland frames the house to the rear. The house's upstairs interior and roof were extensively damaged by fire in 1897 but the structure was restored soon after. Greycliffe has functioned as a visitors' centre and headquarters for the Sydney Harbour National Park. The house was the setting for the Bligh family saga in the 2013 Australian television series A Place To Call Home. References
Casa Greycliffe

La Casa Greycliffe es una histórica vivienda residencial de dos plantas situada en Vaucluse, un suburbio de Sídney, Nueva Gales del Sur, Australia. Finalizada en torno a 1852 en estilo gótico rústico victoriano, Greycliffe figura en el Registro Australiano de Bienes Nacionales (ahora desaparecido) y en la lista de patrimonio del gobierno local del Municipio de Woollahra. Historia Greycliffe fue construida en arenisca, con carpintería de cedro y yesería de excelente calidad, para una de las hijas de William Charles Wentworth . Fanny Wentworth se casó con John Reeve, un inmigrante adinerado de Inglaterra. Reeve compró terrenos en Shark Beach a Wentworth y encargó al arquitecto John Frederick Hilly la construcción de Greycliffe, que se completó alrededor de 1852. Un camino de entrada sellado, originalmente el barandal de carruajes de Greycliffe, conduce a la casa. Reeve nunca vivió en Greycliffe, prefiriendo viajar a Inglaterra con su esposa. En cambio, la casa fue arrendada a una serie de ciudadanos prominentes de Sídney, incluido, inicialmente, el coronel John George Nathaniel Gibbes (1787-1873), MLC, el entonces recaudador de aduanas de Nueva Gales del Sur. La casa proporcionó un punto de observación ideal para Gibbes, ya que podía observar los movimientos de los barcos en el canal principal del puerto de Sídney desde su terraza orientada al norte. Gibbes y su esposa, Elizabeth, residieron en Greycliffe hasta 1859, cuando él se jubiló del Servicio de Aduanas y se mudaron a su nuevo hogar, la finca Yarralumla, en lo que hoy es la capital de Canberra . Yarralumla es ahora la residencia oficial del Gobernador General de Australia .Tras la partida de la esposa de Gibbes, varios arrendatarios privados vivieron en Greycliffe. En 1911, la casa pasó a ser propiedad pública y el Gobierno de Nueva Gales del Sur la cedió para su uso como hospital infantil y posteriormente como centro de maternidad. En 1978, la casa se incorporó al Parque Nacional del Puerto de Sídney, junto con el área recreativa que la rodea, conocida como Parque Nielsen. ​​​ En su estado actual, Greycliffe es una casa victoriana neogótica, grande, elaborada y bien conservada, que conserva vistas panorámicas al agua de la costa norte del puerto de Sídney. Cuenta con múltiples hastiales, un largo recibidor, una majestuosa escalera y tablas de barcaza talladas. Los establos colindan en la parte trasera y los jardines de la residencia descienden hasta la playa, mientras que la vegetación natural enmarca la casa en la parte trasera. El interior y el tejado de la planta superior de la casa sufrieron graves daños en un incendio en 1897, pero la estructura fue restaurada poco después. Greycliffe ha funcionado como centro de visitantes y sede del Parque Nacional del Puerto de Sídney.​ La casa fue el escenario de la saga familiar Bligh en la serie de televisión australiana de 2013 A Place To Call Home.

Residency Museum, York

The Residency Museum in York, Western Australia is a single-storey, heritage-listed building in the Victorian Georgian style. It is associated with the also heritage-listed Old York Hospital. The Residency Built around 1852 as a cottage housing the Depot Superintendent, this building is now the last remaining part of York's Convict Depot. The oldest section was built from hand-made bricks that bore the stamp of the broad arrow, meaning they were the property of the Crown, but which came to represent structures constructed by convicts. In the 1860s the cottage was occupied by the medical officer attached to the Depot Hospital, Dr Robert McCoy. In 1867, after several complaints to the colonial governor about the lack of suitable official accommodation for himself and his family, Resident Magistrate Walkinshaw Cowan moved from his property at Mile Pool to the cottage. During his tenancy, the cottage was extended to accommodate his large family and became known as The Residency. After the Old York Hospital, located on the adjacent site, was constructed in 1896, it did not have the space to provide a maternity hospital and the building was adapted for this use. As a maternity hospital, the building accommodated a maternity and labour ward, nurses' bed/sitting room, duty room and in the adjoining structure, a store, kitchen and maid's room. In 1926, a bathroom, toilet and new verandah were added to the northern wall of the central court and the building became the Matron's Quarters. The building continued to be used as part of the Old York Hospital complex until 1963 when a new hospital and nurses' quarters were built in York. The building was unoccupied and neglected until the early 1970s, when the building was saved from disrepair by the efforts of The York Society which raised $6,000 to have the building preserved and it became The Residency Museum. The funds were used for restoration. "Temporary additions and lean-tos were removed and the building renovated as nearly as possible to [its state] when Walkinshaw Cowan was Resident Magistrate in the 1860s." The Residency Museum The building opened as a Municipal Museum in 1972, managed by the Shire of York, with help from community volunteers. The Residency Museum houses early colonial artefacts and has changing exhibitions. References
Grosvenor Place (Sydney)

Grosvenor Place is a commercial office tower in George Street, Sydney, Australia, which was designed by renowned architect Harry Seidler. The building provides office space on the south-eastern edge of the city centre suburb of The Rocks, adjacent to the northern limits of Sydney's CBD; it is 180 metres tall and contains 44 floors. Current tenants include Sonic Healthcare, Colliers and Sonic Healthcare. Grosvenor Place is owned by Commonwealth Superannuation Corporation (managed by Arcadia) and GPT Group, each with 50%. Description The building occupies an entire block in Sydney's city centre suburb of the Rocks, bounded by George Street, Essex Street and Grosvenor Street (after which the building is named). As well as the modernist office tower facing George Street, the complex includes the Johnsons Building and Royal Naval House – two low-set heritage buildings in Grosvenor Street. There is a diagonal path for pedestrians, which runs between the heritage buildings and the main tower. The premium grade office tower was designed by Harry Seidler & Associates. In 1989, Grosvenor Place won the RAIA Lustig & Moar National Prize and the 1991 Sulman Award. Grosvenor Place was instigated by Bob Hammond who stipulated that the building must generate long term value. This mandate was realised through the design of a large, open floor design; incorporating column-free floor plates, each floor spanning 2,000 square metres (22,000 square feet). This allows tenants to occupy complete levels and provides an uninterrupted space that can be custom designed by tenants. Design The form of the tower features two crescents with an elliptical central core. The positioning and orientation of Grosvenor Place's two quadrants was chosen to maximise views over Sydney Harbour, Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House down George Street. Structurally the building consists of a concrete core with steel beams and prefabricated granite facades. Each floor contains 2,000 m2 (22,000 ft2) of space, providing a total floor area of 90,000 m2 (970,000 ft2). Grosvenor Place's lobby contains Pillars & Cones, an artwork by American minimalist, Frank Stella. The building also houses a five-level basement carpark, al-fresco and internal restaurants and bars.

Guildford Cemetery, Western Australia

Guildford Cemetery is a cemetery in the southern part of South Guildford, Western Australia, located between the Great Eastern Highway Bypass and Kalamunda Road adjacent to the Perth Airport. An earlier cemetery in Guildford was established early in the history of the Swan River Colony in James Street; some headstones were moved to Guildford Cemetery when it was established. Burials also occurred in the churchyard in what is now Stirling Square. In 1888 it was decided that the present cemetery site, which was already in some use at that time, should be used for all future burials. A year later, the church was asking for donations to help maintain the cemetery. In 1937 a new management board was established, to broaden the responsibility for the cemetery from the Anglican, Roman Catholic and Wesleyan churches to also include the Salvation Army and the three local road boards (Swan, Bassendean, and Belmont and Darling). It is currently managed by the Metropolitan Cemeteries Board. Burial lists up to 1998 are available from the Cemeteries Board and are viewable at Battye Library.
