Description

Following Governor Franklin's visit in early 1839 work on the new W. Maitland stockade commenced in June and continued into 1840. A report of Jan 1840 noted the iron gang and road party men were assisting and that the new stockade was 'at the extremity of West Maitland' with the men marching nearly 3 miles from E. Maitland to work. This would place the site somewhere near Maitland Hospital.
