Brief Description
Dallars House is a late-18th-century house situated within a bend of the Cessnock Water. The designed landscape evolved during the 18th and 19th centuries.
History
A mid-18th-century landscape of tree-lined parks had evolved into something less formal by the mid-19th century. The woodland had diminished in extent by the early-20th century. The house has been sub-divided and has been tenanted recently.
