Numbers 67 and 71 Harrington Street are associated with the owners of the public house the Spread Eagle, initially run by Thomas Weedon. It became the Sailors Return Hotel and was inherited by Jane Oatley (née Weedon) and operated by the Oatley family as the Sailors Return Hotel and later as a boarding house. Number 71 Harrington Street is the only remnant of the Sailors Return Hotel, recorded in artworks from c1900 as a picturesque example of the heritage of early Sydney.
