Cranebrook – Site of Fulton’s Church and School

The site is significant as what was probably the first school in the district, and as part of the early development of the Macquarie township of Castlereagh. The foundations of what is believed to have been an old church-school, Classical Academy, built by Rev. Henry Fulton, remain on the site. Cranebrook - Site of Fulton's Church and School
