Summary

[General description] This view shows the end wall of a stone cottage, part of the old barracks complex. A tree, possibly a ficus, is on the right. The archway at the entrance to the quadrangle was built in 1854, probably to the design of the Colonial Architect, W. Bennett Hayes. There was originally another similar one on the western side.
