    This has been bugging me for yonks! It has to be somewhere up the Parramatta River ... ? The old building at Callan Park ? Or Gladesville Hospital ?

    Whoopee! Found it !

    It is at the old GLADESVILLE Hospital. Seen on this GoogleMapsSatellite - maps.google.com.au/maps?q=Gladesville,+New+South+Wales&am... . We are looking south from the north side of the building across Parramatta River towards Abbotsford.

    Anyone know what the building was used for in the asylum?

    Whoopee Again!

    It is the former Medical Superintendent's Residence (check the unusual arrangement of first floor windows). Designed by Mortimer Lewis 1836-38.
