      Conference Tour - Brickendon and Woolmers Estates - 9am-5pm Saturday 27 September ticket

      Brickendon Estate is one of Tasmania’s oldest farming properties, settled in 1824 by William Archer. The farm has been continuously operated and lived on by his direct descendants, now in their seventh generation. In July 2010, Brickendon Estate, along with its neighbouring property, Woolmers Estate, was listed jointly as a World Heritage Site being part of the Australian Convict Sites World Heritage Property. The two Estates are regarded as the most significant rural estates in Australia, having the second largest number of convict workers and still retaining a living history from early European settlement to the present day. At the Brickendon Farm Village which dates from 1824, you will discover where convicts worked, the conditions they lived in and what their fate was. They were paid no wages, but they were fed, housed and clothed and sometimes punished according to the regulations of the convict system. Woolmers Estate is also a key component of Australia’s heritage, representing one of the most intact pioneer farm complexes in the nation. Founded in 1817 by Thomas Archer, it remained in the Archer family for six generations until 1994. Spanning 82 hectares, the estate comprises a collection of buildings that have preserved their 19th-century condition, including the main homestead, workers’ cottages, a chapel, a blacksmith shop, stables, and notably, one of the oldest intact woolsheds in Australia. This site is renowned for its comprehensive assembly of colonial buildings, antique furnishings, and artifacts, providing a glimpse into the early European settlement of Tasmania and the progression of rural life in Australia across two centuries. In addition to its historical and architectural significance, Woolmers Estate boasts beautiful gardens and hosts various events throughout the year, including the celebrated Festival of Roses. Transport to and from Woolmers and Brickenden is included in the tour. A drop-off can be arranged at Launceston Airport on the return trip (for tour participants only). Advance notice must be given.
