Default More Aussie History

My love of early Australian history & military history combined when I photographed an old settlers cottage recently.
Drawn in by the sheer rustic beauty of the building, (built in the 1890's) - the stringybark slab walls are plastered with old newspapers dating between the 1890's to the 1920's - including a wall covered in WW1 news & photographs.
This is close to the last of the original settlers huts in this district. there were 2 similar huts on properties that National parks took over - these were promptly pushed to the ground & burned.......enough said.
The photos were only taken on a mobile phone hence the poor quality. I must return there for a much better inspection one day.

Regards
Robert.
