Carwoola Homestead, Colonial homestead in Southern Tablelands, Australia
The Carwoola Homestead features a two-story Georgian building with single-story wings, accompanied by stone outbuildings including stables and worker cottages.
William Rutledge acquired the property in 1836 and expanded it to 90,000 acres by 1870, making it a central hub for neighboring settlers.
The name Carwoola derives from Carrowillah, an Aboriginal term meaning the meeting of waters on the plain.
The homestead complex sits at 1071 Captains Flat Road and contains multiple agricultural facilities constructed from local hard rubble stone.
Thomas Rutledge established St. Thomas Anglican Church between 1872 and 1874 on donated land, where he and his wife Martha now rest in the graveyard.
