Abstract

Over 300 court houses have been built in NSW, most of them dating from the 19th and 20th centuries. They are interesting, not because of their distinctive architectural character, but because they reflect the life and style of their times. This book looks at the court houses themselves; their architects; their impact on the communities in which they were built; and the roles these building have played in the development of the state.

"... the rengitj, as a visible mark or imprint on the land, is characterised as a place of origin, the repository of all names, as well as a kind of mapped visual expression of the connection between people and places which is to be carried out in the temporal sequence of the journey."
