A lovely mix of locals and visitors took the opportunity to have a look around Pye Cottage on Saturday 25 August 2016, including one person who is considering purchase of a residence in the village.

Members of the Gunning and District Historical Society were on hand to further enhance the visitor's experience.

There was also an opportunity to have a browse through the other material that is held by the Society but not on display.

One young visitor was enthralled with all the "olden" day's way of carrying out activities ranging through the hand operated washing machine, to the fridges of yesteryear (the Coolgardie safe and ice box) to the typewriter. "Is this a keyboard for a computer?" she asked.

The Pye Cottage Museum is open every fourth Sunday and at other times by appointment only.
