Details
Glen Eden Home in Glen Innes was established by the United Protestant Association of New South Wales in 1947. It was a boys' home that had up to 40 boys in residence at any one time. The property included a two-storeyed dormitory building, but was closed due to high costs and changing patterns of child care in 1961.
