Patrick Taylor Cottage, Folk museum in Albany, Western Australia.
The single-story cottage contains eleven rooms, including a parlor, nursery, and sewing room, built with wattle and daub walls beneath a corrugated iron roof.
Constructed in 1832 by the Morley brothers when Albany functioned as a military outpost, the building stands as Western Australia's oldest remaining residential structure.
The museum exhibits over 2000 historical objects, from antique clocks to traditional kitchenware, representing the daily life of early Western Australian settlers.
Located at 37 Duke Street, the museum welcomes visitors daily from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm, with adult admission priced at 6 Australian dollars.
Staff members report unexplained phenomena each September, connected to Frederick Ingoldby, a Boer War veteran who died in the cottage in 1940.
