Rusticania


This early farmhouse has fascinated me for many years
It is situated adjacent to OAKLANDS RIDING CLUB , just North of Tullamarine Airport.
Its unique diminutive structure stands in abject contrast to more contemporary architectural creations that adorn suburbia....where would they put the plasma TV and jacuzzi here ?
Joe and Dino may like the early settler appearance that existed here soon after early rural settlement
I will show it to you again in Spring when daffodils decorate its surrounds

it looks more substantial than our house at the moment, but where are the neighbours? Don't know what we'd do with dear ol' Tony next door telling us what to do
