Description
Wards 9, 10 and 11 were designed as a distinctive Free Style symmetrical ensemble and completed in 1911. Ward 9 is virtually symmetrical, single-storeyed, and comprises a central bay with flanking wings and an airing court on the east side. A later two-storey addition has compromised the original symmetry.
Reason for Listing
Part of a significant Federation period institutional complex of fine buildings and landscape. An outstanding example of Free Style architecture by the first Government Architect.
