This is an interesting exploration of only a portion of this former psychiatric facility. This complex encompassed both sides of Victoria Rd with a pedestrian tunnel connecting both in order for staff and patients to access without needing to cross the busy Rd. The northern side of Victoria Rd is now a residential housing estate. You will notice that most psychiatric hospitals were built beside the river, and this is because the insane were not permitted to travel on the Kings Highway in those days. Gladesville, Callan Park, and Rydalmere hospitals are good examples of this. Rydalmere hospital is now a part of Western Sydney University. Excellent video. Well done 👍 👏
I've explored these grounds so many times and never seen half these buildings. I feel like im missing something. Next time, I'm pulling up Google World Maps!!! 😡😅
Interesting video - looks like someone is still maintaining it, mowing the grass etc
