Summary

[General description] This stone walled yard was used for penning sheep during shearing. The ruined building on the right was probably the shearing shed. These buildings date from pre 1872 when Hogarth and Warren used the property as a pastoral run. From 1872 the Manager's house was taken over for use as the Telegraph Station. [On back of photograph] 'Reproduced in the Chronicle, April 24, 1926 / Strangway Springs / Remains of the settlement / April 1926'.
