Summary

Captain Charles Sturt's home at Grange; a watercolour sketch by Audrey Shapter. The house was built in 1840-41 and called "The Grange". It was one of the earliest homes built in the area and was constructed of brick with the rendered section housing the Nursery Wing. The property had extensive gardens and orchards. The 390 acres were divided in 1877 after the family returned to England for their sons' education.
