A Farmhouse Outbuilding - Morses Creek Road, Wandiligong

            This little farmhouse, built on the crest of a hill on the outskirts of the little alpine town of Wandiligong would have been built around the turn of the Twentieth Century.  

Built of Weatherboard in the Arts and Crafts style, it features its original front door, with stained glass panels above and to the side of it.  The hipped roof, shingled bargeboard and shingled awning are all features of buildings built in the Arts and Crafts style.  

Adjoining the farmhouse, featuring its original corrugated iron roof is a small outbuilding, which I assume was once the laundry for the house.

Wandiligong is a town in north-eastern Victoria in the alpine region around 330 kilometres from Melbourne.  Established in the 1850s as part of the Victorian Gold Rush, Wandiligong became a hub for many gold miners, including a large Chinese community.  At its peak, the town was home to over two thousand inhabitants and boasted shops, churches, a public library, halls and even an hotel.  Much has changed since those heady days of the gold rush, and the picturesque town nestled in a valley and built around the Morses Creek, is now a sleepy little town full of picturesque houses which are often let to visitors to the area.  The whole town is registered with the National Trust of Australia for its historic landscape and buildings of historic value.
