THE BARN WHALING STATION, MOSMAN BAY
by Colleen Godsell, AM
This brief history of The Barn has been prepared by Colleen Godsell, AM, the Barn Custodian, to support the ongoing maintenance of this heritage building.
The Barn is the last remaining structure of Early Colonial Maritime Industrial Architecture left in Sydney. It was built in 1831 by Archibald Mosman on his 108-acre land grant on the east side of Mosman Bay as part of his whaling station.
This book records the ongoing history of The Barn and its many uses over nearly 200 years. The building has been the home of the First Mosman Bay Scout group since 1925 and is used for other community activities.
