👍👍 This place was amazing. Well worth the effort to get there. Parking limited and across a busy road. Narrow entrance due to the building being very old design. But the interior was a trip back in time. Very nice volunteers to serve. Very small cost to enter but more than worth it. Would love to retur...

👍👍 I visited on one of the open days and was very impressed with the house. It was rambling and showed how life was for wealthy pastoral families and the people who worked for them.

Myall Creek Memorial Site
Heritage museum
👍👍 Unfortunately the history here didn't shock us at all. Anyone who still thinks that Invasion Day didn't happen needs to come and read every word that is written here. As a matter of fact it would do Australia a lot of good if everyone spent a day here and just really thought about our TRUE history....
