Ellensbrook, Heritage site in Margaret River, Australia.

Ellensbrook is a single-storey vernacular homestead built in stages from locally sourced granite, limestone, paperbark and timber, standing in a grassed clearing beside Ellen Brook. The site also holds a family grave from the 1850s, a stone dam wall with flume and a waterwheel from the 1950s, and plantings including a mulberry tree, Moreton Bay figs, a Norfolk Island pine and hydrangeas.

Ellen and Alfred Bussell began building the homestead in 1857 on the Noongar camping ground Mokidup, using ticket-of-leave convicts, deserted sailors and local Noongar labour. Their daughter Fanny managed and extended it from 1871 to 1877. Edith Bussell ran the Ellensbrook Farm Home for Aboriginal Children there from 1899 for seventeen years, and by the late 1920s secured the freehold title.

The name Mokidup comes from the Noongar camping ground that once occupied this site, close to Meekadarribee Cave, a sacred place. The homestead itself is named after Ellen Bussell. From 1899 Edith Bussell ran the Ellensbrook Farm Home for Aboriginal Children here for seventeen years, a use that shaped the property's later story.

The property is best explored on foot, with the gentle terrain around Ellen Brook easy to walk through. Access leads from a nearby car park along a short walking path with clearly marked visitor areas.

Edith Bussell ran the Ellensbrook Farm Home for Aboriginal Children here from 1899 for seventeen years. Because women could not inherit property, she only secured the freehold title, with 360 hectares, by the late 1920s. A family grave site from the 1850s stands on the grounds.
