St Helen's Park

St Helen's Park is a two-story neo-Gothic mansion in Campbelltown with a symmetrical facade, cast iron columns, and a slate roof with dormer windows. The grounds include several outbuildings in Victorian style such as a stone cool room, carriage shed, barn, and stables.

The mansion was commissioned by George Charles Westgarth and designed by architect George Allen Mansfield, with construction by builder George Lusted in 1887. It was built during a period of expansion in the Campbelltown region when wealthy families established substantial homes with refined architectural features.

The name honors Saint Helen and reflects Christian traditions in the region. Today visitors can see how the place functions both as a heritage site and as a space where the community gathers.

Wear comfortable shoes as the property spans several buildings with uneven pathways that take time to explore. It helps to check ahead of your visit which areas are open, as not all spaces may be accessible at all times.

The mansion preserves original cedar joinery, marble chimney pieces, and leadlight windows bearing the Westgarth coat of arms that most visitors overlook. These handcrafted details reveal the wealth and taste of the original family and demonstrate the care invested in this residence.
