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.
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.
Susannah Place Museum (also here) is a row of four working-class terraces built in 1844. Rather than being "lovingly restored", each room reflects different occupants from the terrace's 150 year history.
Most of these photos are external. There don't seem to be many internal photos online either.

There are two rooms upstairs, two living rooms on the ground floor and a basement, where the kitchen was originally located.
No. 64, at the end, is a corner shop.
Two of the terraces have wooden kitchen additions on the back.

There are a number of different posts from this site, so I thought I should do a quick overview of the house to give the context to avoid having to repeat it each time. Other posts from this site can be found under the tag.
Runnymede is in National Trust property, in New Town, a suburb of Hobart. It was built in the 1830s and has been added to over the years. That room on the right is one such addition.
If I remember correctly, it is the ballroom, and has a side entrance via a bay window (partly hidden here by the tree).
