History edit

The cottage was built for Wesleyan missionary Reverend Peter Turner. It was threatened with demolition in the 1970s, but was saved after community opposition. It was purchased by the former Municipality of Windsor in 1976 and restored in 1980.[2][3]

It is now leased to an accounting practice by the Hawkesbury City Council.[4]
