xenithBack to the touristy stuff :)
My favourite ruin is the hospital, built 1842, with 4 wards to accommodate prisoners and soldiers. There was one ward top and bottom behind the existing gable, so I assume two on the other side as well.
Bought by the Catholic Church for use as a boys home. Burnt down in 1895 bushfire, but they rebuilt. Burnt down again in the second bushfire.
Down there next.
