Yester Grange
Yester Grange
This beautiful Victorian House not only offers one of the most magnificent views in the Blue Mountains, but is a gallery for paintings, ceramics and antique furniture. A delightful way to witness unique sculptures both natural and man made.
Yester Grange no longer open to the public. It was built of weatherboard and designed by James Barnet, the son of the colonial architect who designed the GPO in Sydney. It was common at the time for the wealthy of Sydney to retreat to the cool of the mountains from the heat of Sydney. From the wide front verandahs there are views across towards Wentworth Falls Lake (a dam built across Jamison Creek in 1903), Mount Solitary and Sublime Point. Sadly it is now no longer open to the public. It is being used for private functions and is not open to the public.
Yester Grange is located on Yester Rd. To get there turn south into Tableland Rd, about 1.5 km east of the railway station. Almost immediately there is a right turn into Yester Rd.
