House Inside a House Opens as Show Home in London
A modern Waushall property by Davis Estates features a lounge dining area on the ground floor and three bedrooms upstairs, built inside an existing two-flat building. Weighing nearly 400 tons, the upper structure required support during construction, while residents remained in the mats on the upper moors throughout. The inner house was completed in fifteen weeks and now serves as a show home illustrating inventive housing.

A. A. Company Early History and Grant Details
A recounting from the S. M. Herald traces the Australian Agricultural Company founded in 1824 to obtain land in New South Wales. It notes a £1,000,000 capital, a 1,000,000 acre grant from the government, and Robert Dawson selecting Port Stephens as the grant site bounded by the Manning River, Cape Hawke, Myall Lakes, and other landmarks.
