Description

Block 18, also known as H Block, is a former hospital building constructed in the 1840s, designed in a style consistent with other buildings from that period. It stands two storeys high with a basement and features a nine-window front, each window being a 12-pane sash. The entrance floor is elevated above the Parade Ground and is accessed through a small garden that includes stone retaining walls and iron railings with stone piers. In front of the central entrance, there is a double stone staircase with iron railings. The first floor is made of ashlar stone, while the ground floor and basement are rusticated. The central doorway, also made of ashlar, has a bracketed cornice and a rectangular overlight above it.
