The Old School, Mt Wilson
Situated on several hectares of bushland amid some of Australia's loveliest gardens, the former Mt Wilson school house and teacher’s residence, have recently been refurbished with the help of a grant from NSW Environment & Heritage. The site is operated by a local charity staffed by volunteers.
The buildings are now available for a range of uses.
