Surname: B. H. P. Pattern Store, Mayfield
First Name: -
Ship: LH
Date: 1918
Place: Mayfield
Source: Port of Newcastle Heritage and Conservation Register
Details: Statement of Significance: It is part of the fabric of the Pattern Store, rather than the building itself, which is significant. The sandstone blocks of which it is constructed came originally from Duckenfield House, seat of the Hon. John Eales, at Duckenfield near Morpeth. BHP used the remainder of the stone to construct two staff residences at the corner of Crebert Street and Margaret Street, Mayfield, in proximity to the works. Duckenfield House was one of the grandest Colonial houses of NSW. Historical Notes: BHP in 1918 purchased Duckenfield Park House with a view to re-using the sandstone blocks making up the main body of the mansion. The stone was loaded into barges and floated down the Hunter River to the Steelworks. Here it was used to construct the Pattern Store, in which were stored wooden foundry patterns used to create shapes in tempered sand, into which molten metal was then poured and allowed to solidify, creating castings needed for various applications within the steelworks. Stone walls and bitumen-covered concrete roof had the benefit of fire resistance for preserving the valuable, but flammable, moulds
