A bit of history...
The land was granted to liquor distiller Nicholas Read in 1852. It then passed hands through to some well-known historical figures from Bathurst's formative years, including Bathurst postmaster William Thompson and surgeon Thomas Machattie.
The house was built around 1925. The owner at the time was a local plasterer by the name of Cecil Griffin, who clearly used his expertise on the ceilings!
