Green Valleys

DESCRIPTION

NameGreen ValleysTypeFarmResidenceGeolocation^[1] Last edited by: Will Chittick

DescriptionGreen Valleys was originally part of the original Henry Osborne Estate (2560 acres). Osborne came to the area in 1829, and settled at Marshall Mount.

Green Valleys is reputed to be the oldest house in the district; built by convicts who were later hung on a nearby tree, though no evidence of this has been found.

Ben Marshall Osborne owned the farm and residence, with Archie Graham occupier and lessee of the property. Archie Graham remained occupier of the property until 1920, when Trustees of the late B.M. Osborne sold the property.

George and Maryann Fleet (nee Greenland) purchased Green Valleys, part of the Osborne sub-division in 1920, and continued to farm the property.
