Kitchen

This room was originally the Library, as Azelia was a well-educated woman, who wrote extensive diaries, now housed in the Battye Library, Perth WA.

Now displayed as a kitchen, converted for use after her death, it now displays articles donated by the local community, that reflect the activities of this time.

Azelia’s original Kitchen was an annexed area at the back of the house with the Maid’s room and Pantry, which is now used by the staff and Historical Society for meeting, office and storage of items for archiving.
