Summary

Nor' West Bend Station homestead reproduced from a sketch by Mrs L Hines, based on an old photograph or sketch. The homestead was originally seven rooms which were built in a U shape about a central courtyard. It is situated fifty metres from the river and is well above the 1956 flood line. The buildings are made of limestone which was quarried from a hill nearby. It was built on the River Murray near Morgan and Cadell and was established in 1850. However, in 1941 overlanders Campbell and Levy took up Nor-West Bend Station, an area of 361 square miles around the present town of Morgan.
