Denbigh, Cobbitty, Colonial homestead in Cobbitty, Australia

The Denbigh estate features a Georgian-style homestead with timber framing and weatherboard construction, surrounded by maintained paddocks and historical groves.

Charles Hook received a 445-hectare land grant from Governor Macquarie in 1812 and constructed the house by 1822 for agricultural purposes.

The property employed between twelve to twenty convicts and local Aboriginal people who conducted traditional ceremonies on the grounds.

Located at 421 The Northern Road, the property transitions from its initial vineyard purpose through various agricultural functions to its current status as a Hereford stud.

The formal gardens contain old-fashioned roses and diverse tree species, reflecting the 19th-century design principles influenced by Scottish writer John Claudius Loudon.
