Bishops Lodge, Heritage house museum in Hay, New South Wales, Australia.
The 1888 iron construction features a single-story layout with a central courtyard, corrugated iron walls, and an encircling verandah at Moama Street.
Architect John Sulman designed the residence for Sydney Linton, the first Anglican Bishop of Riverina, who occupied the building until the 1930s.
The house museum displays artifacts from different periods, reflecting the evolution from religious residence to boys' hostel and later public institution.
Visitors can enter the museum through an electronic device at the Visitor Centre with a five-dollar donation, accepted in both cash and card.
The structure incorporates sawdust insulation and raised ventilation ridges, specifically engineered for the intense summer heat of New South Wales.
