Erskineville, school

Erskineville Public School is located along Swanson Street, in the inner city suburb of Erskineville. The original heritage listed building was designed by C Blackmann and Varney Parkes in the Victorian Free Classical style building and built in 1883. The bell tower stands above the Boys wing of the building.

  3. Wow built in 1883 just how the thought of how they built this building in that time is mind boggling to me. This building is beautiful!
