A thoroughly researched history of thirty early properties of the former Glamorgan municipality on Tasmania's east coast — the pastoral and farming country stretching from Swansea south through the Freycinet and Dolphin Sands country.
This second edition is revised and updated with three additional properties, each with an architectural description of the house and outbuildings — mills, barns and workers' cottages as well as the homesteads themselves — alongside the stories of the pioneer families who settled them up to the First World War.
Properties documented include Apsley and Apslawn, Coombe End, Cranbrook House, Craigie Knowe, Glen Gala, Gala, Glen Heriot, Milton, Lisdillon, Mayfield, Kelvedon, Hermitage, Spring Vale, The Grange, The Bend, The Springs, Riversdale, Belmont, Swanwick, Cambria, Red Banks, Creek Hut, Bluff Cottage, Terenure, Coswell, Piermont, Rocky Hills, Muirland and others across the Glamorgan district.
At 216 indexed pages with colour illustrations throughout, this is a thorough reference for anyone researching a specific east coast property, tracing family history in the Glamorgan district, or building a serious Tasmanian heritage property library.
