Parked outside the gates, just off from the main road, then walked up to take the photo. Zonic was in charge of photos today.

Day trip to Sydney with LuckyL10n to bust free a few GeGnomes and snare a few more Trigs...
Next trig along the road and once inside the trig was soon spotted. TFTT

#GA503 - 13:45; Back in Sydney with the geohoney for the weekend, so after dropping her off for some retail therapy, it was off to grab a few caches. Made a lucky decision on the turn off, which meant I had parked close, but also headed for the next stop as well. Made my way over and took the requisite snaps before heading off again.

Finally got down here for this trig. I took a few photos not knowing which was the real trig. I seem to have deleted the wrong photo, only seem to have the chimney which I'll upload.
Heading over to the North side for a cache after dropping Zhaoy at Burwood to shop. This was my closest to home trig so decided to get it while I was at it. After navigating the maze of the old hospital streets I was greeted by a lovely Jacca in full bloom along with the Trig. Lovely!

Such a beautiful day, so I took off for a long lunch break and drove to get some cache, and a Trig. Drove right in and snapped the photos. nice

I guess if I have to work Saturday and end up at Gladesville Hospital, I might as well log the cache afterwards! Actually I have been here many times over the last 5 years for work and never realised it was a trigpoint, but today finishing up about 1:30 had a chance to look for a few on the way home. Here is a photo of the iPhone in front of the tower.
After checking out St Josephs Trig I thought I had better do this one as well since it was so close.
Turned out an easy find, strange to see that the tall stack next to it is not the trig, most likely the stack was built after the Trig had been established.
Well worth a wander around the grounds as there are some great old buildings there once you get past the use they were put to.
