Abercrombie House - Bathurst
Abercrombie House was built in the 1870s by the Stewart family who were Bathurst pioneers. It is an excellent example of the Victorian Tudor style which is an English traditional style centred on a nostalgic view of Britain at the time of Henry VIII. The house was vacated by the Stewart family in November 1927.
In late 1968 it was bought by Mary and Rex Morgan AM, MBE. The Morgans embarked on a complete restoration of the house and property which is now largely finished and commenced a programme of public heritage tours of the house which has continued regularly since April 1969, making Abercrombie House one of the longest standing privately owned historic house museums in Australia.
