SLAB COTTAGE

Built in 1986 following modern-day building regulations, to a reproduction of an early mountain house - without a floor being trodden earth or laid slabs. The cottage gives a feeling of the times and of being "lived in".

Visitors can view many items used by the early settlers. Check out a traditional "outhouse" complete with a resident red back spider at the rear of the building. This style of outhouse was still in use in Brisbane in the late 1960's.
