Orroral Homestead and Woolshed

Situated in the Orroral Valley, this homestead is a short walk from the Orroral Road. 

Brief History

Orroral is a magnificent homestead, typical of the period and easily accessible. It has been well restored, and features a central slab homestead, plus outbuildings.

The homestead was built for Archibald and Mary McKeahnie for grazing in the 1860's. It has three rooms and a chimney at each end, plus a full length verandah at the front. The orginal kitchen and staff quarters were built behind, and were as large as the house. The main chimney for the kitchen remains.

 

The Woolshed

Please note that the woolshed and stockyards were built by a later owner, Andy Cunnungham, in the 1930's.
