Foyer Stairs pyrmont The wire fence and galvanised

The wire fence and galvanised water tanks belong to a working property that remained in continuous family hands from 1910 to 2004

each colour a different decade

its chimney breast shedding paint in thick curling layers down to bare plaster and timber beneath

seventy-six years of mail passing through a single kiosk window

its rusted roller door flanked by old drums

Foyer Stairs pyrmont The wire fence and galvanisedThe foyer staircase of the former Lewisham Hospital, Convent and Grounds stands worn and peeling, sunlight cutting through grimy windows onto treads that carried patients, sisters, and staff for nearly a century. The Little Company of Mary opened the first wing here in 1889 and operated the complex until 1986. Part of the Lewisham Hospital series.
