Beechcroft Residential Home
This area could fairly be described as "Nursing Home Central". Many large Victorian houses (built for rich merchants and importers) are now too large for modern families and have been converted into nursing homes. Others have been knocked down and the land used to build sheltered flats for elderly people less in need of full-time care.

Stone plaque marking the site of St Aidan's College
St Aidan's Theological College was a large brick building built in the Tudor style, which taught Anglican students of theology. It is now demolished, and replaced by housing on the site. This plaque in one of the original walls surrounding the site is located approximately 100 metres north of the original building.
