The “Irwin Street Building” is the oldest building on University of Western Australia [UWA] campus, originally located on Irwin Street in the centre of Perth, it was moved to the current site in 1987. Presently used as the cricket pavilion and heritage office. I drew this in black pencil in a Clairefontaine notebook sitting on a bench under the trees, very pleasant.
Notes from https://www.web.uwa.edu.au/university/history/archive-collections/irwin-street…..
“A T-shaped jarrah building constructed in 1913 provided the University’s original accommodation on this site. It was not quite complete when teaching started on 31 March 1913. Professor AD Ross, Foundation Professor of Mathematics and Physics commented that: “…the first building we got was certainly original in more senses than one. It was a jarrah shed, 110 feet long by 20 feet wide … We estimated that the building would be ready for a start on the 16 March, then 21 March, then 23 March, and finally it must be 31 March. Members of staff, at the risk of their lives, would go in and pin up notes on doors: ‘Department of Geology’ or the like. Since one of the little rooms had already been commandeered for the janitor, the telephone, electric switchboard, brooms, mops and buckets, it was evident that eleven departments must share six rooms.”
