Enjoy afternoon tea and a spring tour of historic Richmond as we celebrate 25 years of the National Trust (NSW) Hawkesbury Branch.

Meet at Richmond Library

Join a special spring walking tour of Richmond from 1820 - 1880, as we explore the development of this post-Macquarie township around the western side of the original 1811 square. After our guided tour, enjoy afternoon tea in the historic 1866 School of Arts to celebrate the National Trust (NSW) Hawkesbury Branch’s 25th birthday.This unmissable tour features an exclusive garden visit of Eulabah, a stately two-storey1880s house that rarely unlocks it's garden gates for visitors.Built by James Cameron - the Presbyterian minister who married into the prominent local Bowman family, builders of the elegant nearby Presbyterian Church - Eulabah proudly displays the intertwined initials of its original owners alongside its date of construction, near the end of our period of study.In stark contrast, diagonally opposite is a small vernacular cottage from a much earlier period which has just been restored, and in between are many gems like the 1820s ex-convict William Price’s house that was once a post-office, an undertaker’s premises and a smithy’s shop.Tickets include an engaging tour and afternoon tea. Organised by the Hawkesbury Branch of the National Trust (NSW).
