The Priory, Gladesville, Heritage-listed former farm and mental health facility in Gladesville, Australia.
The Priory encompasses multiple buildings featuring Gothic architectural elements, including a wooden chapel and extensive grounds with orchards and vineyards.
Thomas Stubbs established the property in 1847, which later became home to the Marist Fathers who used it as a base for Pacific missions.
The site represents the evolution of Australian healthcare facilities, transforming from a religious institution to Gladesville Mental Hospital for over 60 years.
Located on Manning Road, The Priory operates under Hunters Hill Council management, providing opportunities for community cultural activities and guided tours.
The wooden chapel within The Priory complex served as the temporary resting place for St. Peter Chanel before his remains were transferred to France.
