Date: 14 March 1863
Place: Hunter-street, Newcastle
Source: Newcastle Chronicle
Details: We were not a little pleased to learn from Mr. Alderman Corlette, that the new iron bridge intended to be thrown over Blane-street by the Australian Agricultural Company – in lieu of the present unsightly and inconvenient structure, had arrived in the colony, and might be expected in Newcastle in the course of a few days. The present level of the street is doubtless very different from the existing one when the bridge now standing was put up. Then it was rightly decided that sufficient height was permitted for all the traffic that would have to pass under it; and so it was found to be. Scarcely, at that time, did the most sanguine or prescient person anticipate in how short a period this city was to undergo great changes. …..when the formation of the streets generally necessitated the adoption of a higher level, it was found that the openings of the old bridge over Blane-street were insufficiently lofty; and great have been in the inconveniences sustained thereby. Not a few can tell of damaged hats when passing under on horse back and neglecting to do homage to the coal encrusted beams; others are to be found who will dilate on the injuries done to their furniture when a change of residence in that direction compelled transport of household goods which a short sighted drayman, in hopes of saving a trip had piled up too high; and some, unaccustomed to the locality, will relate their anything but pleasant surprise in the shape of a sharp concussion with what they thought far above their heads

Source: Newcastle Morning Herald 15 July 1876
Details: In 1875, the A. A. company built a residence for general superintendent Jesse Gregson. In July 1876 the Newcastle Morning Herald reported on the A. A. Company house. This splendid place of residence is now ready for occupation, and in respect of accommodation and completeness of detail of the internal and external arrangements, will compare favourably with any gentleman s residence in the colony of its size. It is built on one of the most beautiful spots of the many that are to be found on the Hunter River, about four miles from Newcastle, and commands a very extensive view from all quarters, and is surrounded with several fine paddocks. The house itself is built of the very best materials, and contains in all 16 rooms. Entering by the hall or front door, we are admitted to a spacious hall, 16 ft. by 40 ft., from which doors leading to drawing room on the left, size 25 x 16, very elaborately fitted up, with highly varnished cedar skirtings and architraves richly moulded, and carved mantelpiece of marble; handsome bow window, all finished in first-class style; on the left of entrance is the dining room, finished the same, with black marble mantle piece. Passing through the hall we come to the Library, a fine spacious room, finished same as drawing room. From the hall leading to the upper apartments is a splendid staircase, made of picked cedar, of beautiful design and elaborate workmanship, no expense seeming to have been spared over this piece of work. The upper apartments consist of five bedrooms, two large and three smaller ones, all of which open into a wide corridor; the whole of the rooms are fitted up in a very superior manner. We notice that hat and coat nails have not been forgotten in fitting up these rooms; there. is also on this floor, a large linen closet, fitted up with shelves, &c., and also a dressing room. Three of the bedrooms open on to a spacious balcony, which is surrounded by an iron railing of a very pretty design, and covered with a curved iron roof-all finished Iin a very artistic and beautiful manner. Off the stair case landing, a passage leads to a bath-room and lavatory, both fitted up in the best manner possible, and supplied with water from a large cistern placed in the roof, the cistern being supplied with water from the large tank in the yard 22 feet deep 12 feet diameter with a force pump. The servant s bedroom is on this floor, a very pleasant room. Going down the back staircase we come to the store, fitted up with shelving, the kitchen with . magnificent range, water laid on, and other conveniences; out of the kitchen and the laundry, which is also fitted up with every convenience, such as copper, water, also attached to the kitchen is a garden, and near by butler s closet plate closet, also glass. Outside is fine large stable, coach house, mans room, harness etc., all built in the most substantial manner; the whole of the building forming a most delightful retreat, and one we should imagine forming as it will a handsome retreat for the gentleman who is to occupy it. At a toilsome day s business in town, it can be easily reached, either by train or conveyance. The building was designed by the Messrs. Mansfield, the well known architects of Sydney, and carried out under the supervision of Mr. W. Cain the extensive builder of East Maitland
