Description
February 2013. Heritage assessment.
The cartlodge is located along the Southern boundary of the property. The building is in a dilapidated condition. It has been constructed from salvaged materials, including telegraph poles. The pent roof is covered in corrugated iron. A concrete base to the East suggests an extended footprint. The mapping evidence reveals that a building has been shown in this approximate location since 1843. However, the present structure appears to be a later replacement. It is due to be demolished. <1>
January 2025. Aerial imagery.
Google Earth imagery suggests the building was demolished sometime between the survey in 2013 and 2017. It does not appear on imagery from 2017, and a new structure has been built in its place.<2>
