Excavation Report: Central Park (Former Carlton and United Brewery) (Sydney)
At more than 80m in length, the remains of the Kent Brewery stables represent one of the largest colonial structures excavated in NSW. Although significantly disturbed by later phases of use, archaeological evidence indicates it was a multi-use structure (not limited to just stabling horses) associated with a complex water-reticulation system feeding into Blackwattle Creek.

Spearwood's Dr Emilie Dotte-Sarout, from UWA's School of Social Sciences and School of Humanities, was awarded $399,551 over three years to investigate the scientific lives of women in the development of a particular discipline; using Pacific archaeology as a case study.
"The history of science has traditionally produced gender-biased narratives, so an innovative interdisciplinary approach will be developed to document the hidden role of women in the history of archaeology," Dr Dotte-Sarout said.
