Carss Cottage, Historic cottage museum in Carss Park, Australia
The stone building with a slate roof sits near Georges River, serving as a museum that displays historical artifacts and documents.
William Carss, a cabinet maker from Glasgow, constructed this sandstone cottage in 1865 using locally quarried materials for his family residence.
The cottage exhibits early colonial architectural design and demonstrates the building techniques of Scottish masons who worked on Sydney University.
Located at 80 Carwar Avenue, the cottage opens as a museum under the management of Georges River Council and local historical society.
The structure ranks among southern Sydney's oldest buildings and includes archaeological elements from former outbuildings in its surroundings.
