It was designed by John Whitton and built from 1874 to 1886. It is also known as Honeysuckle Railway Workshops and Civic Railway Workshops. It now houses the Newcastle Museum. It was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999.[1] Timeline
Surviving buildingsSurviving buildings at the site include: The Divisional Engineer's Office, constructed in 1886, is a two-storied, rendered and painted brick building at the western end of the group. It has a corrugated-iron awning around three sides and a corrugated iron double-gabled roof with rendered brick chimneys along both ridges. Architect was John Whitton.[1] The Boiler House and Machine Shop is directly to the east and adjoins the Divisonal Engineer's Office. Built in 1874-75 (Architect John Whitton, Builder: Dart & Parkhill) it is the oldest building in the group. A single-storey brick building with corrugated gabled roof and arched windows set within a series of recessed bays along both facades. A small brick gabled wing has been added to its northern facade. It now houses the museum's interactive science exhibit, Supernova.[1] The Blacksmith's Shop and Wheel Shop, constructed between 1880-1882, it is located on the southern side of Workshop Way. The building originally served as a locomotive blacksmith's shop (eastern end) and machine and wheel shop (western end). Brick walls and corrugated-iron roofing with a series of arched windows along the length of the northern and southern sides. Five metres in height, its double-gabled roof is connected along the centre line with a box gutter.[1] It is now exhibition space for the museum.[3] ArchaeologyThe site has the potential to contain evidence of the original Monier Sea Wall, the remnants of an original stone wall associated with the reclamation for Lee Wharf construction; rail sidings along Lee Wharf and spur connections to the Honeysuckle Railway Workshops/Yards.[1] In terms of archaeological potential, the Honeysuckle Railway Workshops contain industrial remains including extensive footings of demolished brick buildings, underground pipes for air, water, gas, hydraulic oil and artefacts related to use and occupation of the area as a railway facility for over 100 years.[1] The site has the potential to contain evidence of the original Monier Sea Wall, an innovative and supposedly rat-proof system first used at Walsh Bay, Sydney and then used here. The remnants of an original stone wall associated with reclamation for the Lee Wharf construction; rail sidings along Lee Wharf and spur connections to the Honeysuckle Railway Workshops/Yards.[1] Heritage listingCivic Railway Workshops is one of the outstanding industrial workshop sites in the State and an excellent example of a Victorian workshop group that display continuity, excellence in design and execution and add to the townscape of Newcastle as well as play an important role in the history of the railway in the area. The whole group is of highest significance in the State. Construction of workshops in Newcastle was brought about for two reasons: separation of the Great Northern lines from the main system from 1857 to 1889; and in recognition of the exclusive facilities and rolling stock required to handle coal traffic.[1] The Lee Wharf site has the potential to contain historical archaeological remains, including remains of State significance. Some may lie within the boundary of the State Heritage Register Listing. Others may lay outside that boundary.[4][1] Civic Railway Workshops was listed on the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999 having satisfied the following criteria.[1] The place is important in demonstrating aesthetic characteristics and/or a high degree of creative or technical achievement in New South Wales.The group of workshops is the only remaining example that demonstrates the design principles and technology applied to small railway workshop buildings in the 1870s and 1880s in Southeastern Australia.[1] See also{{Portal|New South Wales}}References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 {{cite NSW SHR|5044977|Civic Railway Workshops|hr=00956|fn=S90/05371;S94/01096;H05/00083|accessdate=2 June 2018}} 2. ^Newcastle Herald, 19/7/16, 7 3. ^1 {{cite web | url=http://www.newcastlemuseum.com.au/About/Museum-History | title=History | publisher=Newcastle Museum | accessdate=8 July 2018}} 4. ^Archaeology Significance taken from Godden Mackay Logan, May 2003 Bibliography
