Cadmans Cottage Historic Site
Australia / The Rocks, New South Wales
Location ID: #10120497
Cadmans Cottage Historic Site was created in April 1972. It covers an area of 0.1ha. For detailed park and fire management documents, visit the OEH website.
Built in 1816, Cadmans Cottage is one of only a handful of Sydney buildings that remain from the first 30 years of the colony. Over the years this sandstone cottage has been a water transport headquarters, a sailors' home and a water police station, among other things. It used to be beside the water, but since the construction of Circular Quay the harbour has 'moved' 100 metres away.
