Property
Davidson Cottage circa 1860, was built on land purchased from Alexander Cameron (Mary MacKillop's uncle). It was made with pit-sawn timber and a shingle roof. In the 1890's the cottage was leased by the Anglican church for use as a Rectory.
The building was purchased and restored by the Penola branch of the National Trust in 1987. The cottage has recently been refurbished and officially opened in October 2009.
Relax and unwind as you soak up the ambience of the historic Petticoat Lane.
