Memories 26

Eden Valley - South Australia

The buildings date back to 1865
when a William Heath purchased a 60ha property which he named
"Heathvale". No doubt it was probably old William who built
these stone buildings, of which there are many still standing.

We saw these when we were celebrating a wine-making friend's 60th birthday.
(See yesterday's challenge photo for the wine references)

Oh, nice image. I really like this place. Old rock buildings just facinate me. Very nice composition and work!

Old stones like that hold lots of old memories. Nice find.

They look solid enough for another few years! If only those walls could speak.

A pity not more of our early buildings weren't built in stone...the white ants took care of the wattle & daub very quickly :) Nice property, Von

So similar to many around Devon. I love the tin roofs.
