Horsley complex, Heritage estate in Horsley Park, Australia

The Horsley complex spans across multiple buildings made of convict bricks, including a main homestead, stables, blacksmith shop, and barn at Jamieson Close.

Lieutenant Colonel George Johnston received this 2000-acre land parcel at Prospect in 1805 as compensation for controlling a convict uprising at Castle Hill.

The architecture of the main building combines Australian colonial features with Indian design elements, incorporating Indian teak joinery and bungalow-style characteristics.

The property maintains its original layout with historic Bunya pine trees and agricultural structures that demonstrate early colonial farming methods in New South Wales.

The estate exported horses to India during the 1830s while functioning as a vineyard, orchard, and breeding facility under Captain Weston's management.
