Mayura Homestead
'Mayura' is significant in its connection with the early European settlement of the South-East of South Australia, notably with George Glen and Samuel Davenport. The main house, designed by English and Brown, Architects and Builders, was a gracious homestead in a remote area and provided accommodation for visiting Governors, judges on circuit and other officials. The building materials and workmen arrived from Adelaide by sea, were off-loaded at Grey Town (Southend) on Rivoli Bay and transported to the hill-side site. Millicent Glen's new home 'Mayura' was a genteel oasis in the South-East in the late 1850s and 1860s and has remained as a symbol of the early pastoralist endeavours in the area.
