The Pill Factory

27 Mar 2024 33 24 327
This Victorian-era building, of all things, was built as a pill factory by a homeopath, who produced pills for (it seems) almost every known ailment. It subsequently became a guest house and, more recently, has been restored externally to original condition and updated internally as a boutique hotel. Another image in the PiP. Happy Wednesday Wall, everyone.

Tidmarsh

This Braidwood building is named "Tidmarsh". The house has been restored to its original condition in recent years, complete with a shingle roof. HFF and have a great weekend, everyone. Back in the early 1860s this was used as a police barracks. Later it became the residence of the Superintendent in charge of the local police force. With the problems caused by the Clarke gang of bushrangers, the police numbers grew to about 150, by far the largest in any country district. It is worth noting at this point that it seems there was a rather 'distant' relationship between the police and the Special Constables (details with previous image).
