The Yaralla Estate, also known as the Dame Eadith Walker Estate, is located in Concord West, New South Wales, Australia. ==History== Yaralla was the home of Eadith Walker and her father Thomas. The estate is historically significant as one of the last large nineteenth century estates remaining in metropolitan Sydney. It is of rare State significance because it incorporates an entire 1790s land grant within its boundaries. The estate is now home to the Dame Eadith Walker Hospital. In the 1860s, Thomas Walker commissioned the architect Edmund Blacket to design a home on the shores of the Parramatta River.〔(Concord Heritage Society )〕 This Italianate mansion became the Walker family home. From 1893 to 1899, Eadith Walker built extensions that were designed by the architect John Sulman. A stables and coach house complex were also designed by Sulman at the same time. The entire estate is now listed on the Register of the National Estate〔The Heritage of Australia, Macmillan Company, 1981, p.2/23〕 and also has a New South Wales heritage listing.〔(NSW Heritage Website )〕 File:YarallaMansion.JPG|Yaralla Mansion 2007 Image:Yaralla3.JPG|North side of the house Image:Yaralla12.JPG|Yaralla stables, designed by John Sulman Image:Yaralla5.JPG|Yaralla grounds Image:Yaralla8.JPG|Grotto at former site of swimming pool File:Yaralla Estate field and Turpentine forest, Concord West, NSW.JPG|Yaralla Estate field and Turpentine forest 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yaralla Estate」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
