Bungarribee Homestead Site, Heritage homestead site in Doonside, Australia

The Bungarribee Homestead Site contains foundation remains and structural elements dating back to the early nineteenth century colonial settlement period.

John Campbell acquired 2000 acres in 1822 and constructed the homestead using convict labor before the East India Company took possession between 1843 and 1846.

The land originally belonged to the Warrawarry group of the Darug people, who utilized the surrounding ecosystem for food, shelter, and hunting resources.

Archaeological excavations conducted in 2000 revealed critical information about late eighteenth-century architecture through the discovery of homestead foundations and structural elements.

The Commonwealth government repurposed the estate during World War II for military training purposes, constructing an airfield that altered its agricultural function.
