Elements on Display
Displays include relics from the battle, orange memorabilia, original furniture from the cottage and old farming and dairy artefacts. Also old chair in top room which came with the Winter family in 1665, Traditional holds that this old chair had been used when the first embryonic meeting was held in the cottage after the Battle of the Diamond in 1795. The walls of the cottage were repaired using bricks made of red clay from the back of the cottage. These bricks were dried in the griddle over the fire.
