63 Dodson Road, Timber Mill Worker’s Cottage

The cottage once located at 63 Dodson Road was a Group Settlement house built to standardised plans developed by the Public Works Department after 1925. In the 1930s the Meyer family transported the cottage to 63 Dodson Road on the corner of the South Western Highway. Sadly the house was demolished around 2005.
