The Anderson Stuart Building

The Anderson Stuart Building (formerly known as the "Old Medical School") is a superb example of neo-gothic architecture located next to the main quadrangle.

The building, carved out of beautiful golden Sydney sandstone - exhibits many gargoyles, superb stained glass windows and carvings. It was designed by James Barnet, with additions by Walter Liberty Vernon and then Leslie Wilkinson. It is on the Heritage list and has recently undergone substantial renovations.

The building may or may not have ghosts, but it certainly contains many skeletons. Read about the legend of the raven.
