A piece of Aussie history

Another property up the road a little way
Not as old but still a great older building

It's great to see another person who appreciates early Australian history. The Western Australian countryside is littered with dilapidated homesteads and outbuilding. Unfortunately, many of them are being left to rot
I think property owners with old buildings should be given government incentives to preserve them for future generations.

I agree. When we built our extensions on our 1923 model house we pulled down two old houses that were rotting away & used the timber, corrugated iron, doors, trim, picture rails, flooring & metal ceeling work in the new part of our house.
I know of a couple of houses that are absolutely magnificent, but, rotting away. Once they loose a sheet of iron they are as good as stuffed.

Thanks for taking the time to smell the roses, we are in such a rush to get somewhere we rarely spend time just enjoying life.
