Title A name given to the resource 1853 - 1880: Laying the foundation of the Campus Description An account of the resource The University of Melbourne's Parkville campus was established in 1853. Originally it was an area of swampland which had been a food gathering area for local Wurundjeri people. After being fenced to exclude outsiders, the campus became a picturesque landscaped park into which more and more individual buildings were added. The Quadrangle, the Lake and the System Garden were the earliest developments on the University of Melbourne Parkville campus.

Construction of the North Wing began in 1856, and provided lecture theatres, a museum and later, space for a library. A South Wing was finally completed in 1969, fully enclosing the Quadrangle. It is the oldest non-ecclesiastical Gothic revival structure in Victoria. The Old Quad has undergone several restoration projects over its history, the most recent being in 2019.
