Rose Bay police station

Rose Bay police station is located on the corner of New South Head Road and Wunulla Road, in the eastern suburb of Rose Bay. It was originally the gatekeeper's lodge of Woollahra House, a mansion built in the nineteenth century. This building was built in 1871 and was designed in a Victorian Classical Revival style. The original octagonal structure was altered by the addition of two wings and a Spanish Mission style roof when the building became a police station in the 1930s.
