Rupertswood Mansion

At the end of a long winding drive, nestled amongst mature trees, stands "Rupertswood". A remarkable architectural expression of the more genteel, Victorian era.Its magnificent proportions and unique gardens lay testimony to the privilege and power that prevailed on these grounds. Built as a residence for Sir William Clarke, (first Australian born Baronet), it became a power seat in the great English tradition. Balls, hunt meets and week–end house parties were frequent. Anyone of note, in Victorian and Edwardian society, was entertained by the Clarkes.
