Shetland Crofthouse Museum, Dunrossness. A traditional crofter’s cottage set out at it would have been in the 1870s
On entering is a short hall that leads through to a barn. The byre is to the right and the living area is to the left.
Farming
Rosny Farm Cottage
The site is listed on the Tasmanian Heritage register and consists of an early 19th Century stone barn (c1818), mid-19th Century sandstone farm cottage (c1850) and public art gallery set within landscaped grounds at Rosny Park.
City of Clarence
On The Convict Trail has a brief history of the site.
Stables, Callington (2015)
Stables in the Callington Mill complex, Oatlands. Main post here. Late in the day, so the light is poor. Better photos here, but I’m leaving these ones as they might show other details.
Coach House & Stables
The coach house and stable at Runymede consists of a front room with large double doors where the carriage is and a second room at the back with the stalls, and a wooden addition. There are pegs on the wall of the stable room for tack (I assume) and a regular door in the back wall.

Smaller stables
Smaller stable building, for a gentleman’s residence, at Franklin House
Window: turning the central bar and the pegs push the slates open, to let air in.
Entally
This is Entally, built about 1819 by Thomas Reibey, son of horse thief & businesswoman Mary who is on our $20 note. It’s an Indian name, Bengali it seems from the Wikipedia article, after a “neighbourhood” in Calcutta. Or more likely, after Thomas’s father’s business that was named after said suburb of Calcutta. His father had been in the East India Company and made use of his connections there to establish an import business in NSW. It is the next generation that had most influence on the property though, the son, also Thomas, and his wife Catherine.
There are many outbuildings, laid out in yards. I am doing individual posts for some buildings.
Carriage House, Entally
Entally Estate: the original house was built 1819 and modified over the following decades. The yards at the back have a number of farm buildings constructed over the same period, including this carriage house and stable building.
The stable area is on the right. The carriage area is on the left.
This a rough plan to give an idea of the relationship between the different parts of the building. The area over the back is more storage for carriages, that faces onto a different yard.
CARRIAGE/COACH HOUSE
Door on left goes through to a small room (Livery or Coachman’s room the panel says).
This room has a fireplace and, to the right, stairs that lead to the upper level.
Upstairs.
Door for loading grain etc. to be stored up here.
