Hermitage Hill

Now a convention centre and country retreat, until 1989 Hermitage Hill was the hospital for the inland town of Wellington.

This is the Heritage Listed former Main Ward building, some details are: "The Main Ward building, 1903/4, of the old district hospital is a large and impressive building sited on a hill overlooking the town and valley. ....Built ...of local red bricks from the Wellington Kiln, the main block of the hospital is designed in the Federation Queen Ann/Filigree style. Queen Ann elements can be seen in the varied roof shapes, Marseilles patterned roof tiles, terracotta ridge ornamentation, tower, gable facing street, timbered effect in gable, and Filigree elements evident in the substantial iron filigree to the verandah."

HFF and have a great weekend, everyone.
