****** %%%%%% Cleveland House - 146 - 164 Chalmers Street - Surry Hills - NSW - PART 2
Cleveland house - 146 - 164 Chalmers Street - Surry Hills - NSW Part 2
Seeing Cleveland House Is A Very Sad Sight Indeed. It's Located Near Central Station. And If You Don't Know Or It's Location It Doesn't Stand Out At All. Apparently Its Been Dated As One Of The Oldest Remaining Houses In Australia, Apart From Some Of The Buildings Located At The Rocks & Millers Point.
The Whole Area There Was Called Cleveland Paddocks & Cleveland Gardens, And This Only A Guess, But I Think It Probably Extended All The Way Up Cleveland Street. Many People Have Lived There Over The Last 2 Centuries..... Yes... 2 Centuries.
What It Looks Like To Me, & This Is A Guess, That Whoever Or Whatever Owns It, & I Guess It's A Building Company Are Leaving It so It Falls Down On Its Own, & Then They'll Demolish It & Whack Up Some Cheap And Nasty Units for Maximum Money... And In A Few Years Everyone Will Forget It Was Ever There.
