Description
Just a few minutes walk east of the Gundaroo Drive junction, off Gungahlin Drive, will take you to the ruins of a five-roomed stone house. You will see a free-standing pise (rammed earth) room and evidence of a slab building, two sheds and a pit toilet built between 1860-1887.
These, together with a few fence posts and exotic trees, are all that remains of the home of Thomas Gribble who emigrated from England in 1857 to become a successful landowner renowned for his adoption of new farming techniques.
For safety reasons, the ruins are viewed from behind a protective fence.
