There’s not a whole lot to go on with this one. A large sandstone building on the foreshores of a waterway.

Can you date this photograph?

We have many other undated photographs in Photo Investigator and on our Flickr account. If know the dates or any other interesting facts about these images please let us know.

    We’ve already got a positive identification for the building over on Flickr!

    The irrepressible Beachcomberaustralia has identified the building as the Medical Superintendent’s Residence at Gladesville Hospital!

    But do we have a date for the photos yet?
