Thank you for sharing this video. I haven’t got there yet cause of Covid. I finally found my Great Great Grandmother and she is buried there. Everyone else have made out she ran off and married someone else but she was committed here and didn’t last a year cause she was so sick. She shouldn’t have been committed as she was sick with kidney failure and melancholia which to me suggests she had post natal depression after just having my Great Grandmother. Mary Jane Rogers-Cole was Irish and she married my Great Great Grandfather Thomas Cole (Mariner) in 1856 in Scots church Sydney.
Always wished that tunnel at the beginning of the video had no GRAFFITI in it. Why are there no complaints about it? or why doesn't it get removed?
Most of Gladesville was closed in in 1993 and most of the buildings demolished except the few remaining my father in law worked there after returning from the 2WW, the remaining buildings may look nice historically but its the two underground levels that no longer exist single exclusion what could only be called in any terms total isolation , mental health was so misunderstood back then, source for the underground levels which obviously now have become foundations for town house complexes, well an old fella in his later years and yes I visited the site with him a true ANZAC in 1981 , a lot of demo and concrete was used to hide the truth , enough said , I will see myself out
Speaking of the Parramatta Female Factory, you should do an episode on that, especially the Parramatta Girls Home (1 Fleet Street) which retains some of the 'abandoned buildings' feel. Of course, since many of the Parragirls are still alive, this is something that needs to be done with sensitivity.
My great grandmother was a psychiatric nurse at this hospital. That was probably around 1910-20s.
Hey, i really like this content and want to watch, but the music is distracting and makes it hard to listen to you. I'd love if you could upload a video with the music turned off :)
Very good. You missed though the “Madman tunnel” which is now blocked up. The road still exists. The northern side of the road had buildings but were lost due to development. I used to walk through there in the 1980’s. Great research though.
what a nice young man.
ahhh... beautiful sydney.
Hello. Nice document. Is this place currently available, could I do such a tour of this place legibly?
My Dad worked as a psychiatrist at this hospital from 1965 to about 1976. We lived on the grounds in one of the doctor’s residences. At about
