Brislington, Parramatta, Medical museum in Parramatta, Australia.

The two-story Georgian building at George and Marsden Streets features sash windows, brick construction, and symmetrical architectural elements throughout its structure.

Built in 1821 for ex-convict John Hodges, the building initially served as the Anchor & Hope Inn before becoming a medical residence in 1857.

The museum preserves medical instruments, photographs, and documents that showcase the evolution of healthcare practices in New South Wales from the 19th century.

Visitors can explore the oldest residential structure in Parramatta, which contains exhibits about nursing education and medical treatments across different periods.

The building's rear wall incorporates a diamond pattern made with darker bricks, commemorating the card game winnings that funded its construction.
