STABLE HOUSE BY SIBLING ARCHITECTURE

History weaves its way through Stable House via charming brick walls that brim with character and hint at Forest Lodge’s past. The area, a small inner-suburb of Sydney, was once home to Harold Park Paceway, a harness racing track that operated from the 1890s until 2010. Remnants of this lifetime are evident in the many surviving horse stables that are scattered throughout the area, including this one: a dilapidated brick stable built behind an 1880s worker’s cottage, which was accessed by a carriageway easement on the western edge of the site.
