Pringle Cottage, Heritage-listed sandstone cottage in Warwick, Australia

Pringle Cottage is a two-storey sandstone building at 81 Dragon Street, Warwick, with a rectangular plan, a rear kitchen wing and an eastern verandah. Its corrugated iron gabled roof runs north-south, partly hidden behind a moulded stone parapet. The sandstone is coursed rubble with picked faces, and the verandah has an ogee profile on chamfered timber posts.

John McCulloch, a stonemason who arrived in Warwick around 1862, acquired the land in September 1863 and built this two-storey sandstone house in the 1860s or 1870s. Between 1871 and 1874 he borrowed about £950, possibly for its construction. The property passed to Helen Devine in March 1902, and the Warwick and District Historical Society took possession in November 1979, naming it after the Pringle family.

The cottage served as a private school operated by Mrs. F.S. Pringle and her daughter between 1898 and 1905, educating local children on the upper level. This educational purpose gave the building a special role in the community during those years.

The cottage is located at 81 Dragon Street and is maintained by the Warwick and District Historical Society for public visits. Visitors can view the preserved interior and learn about the building's historical features during a tour.

The upper floor rooms have ceilings of timber boarding that rake toward the east and west ends following the roofline. One room retains early fitted floral carpet. The kitchen has whitewashed stone walls, an unlined timber ceiling and a stone floor.
