Lythgo's Row Cottages
Colonial Heritage Accommodation

Mrs Lythgo

This cottage was named for Sarah, wife of William Lythgo.  After William was transported, Sarah worked “around the town” to support herself.  Eventually she was convicted for pick-pocketing and transported to Australia, where she was eventually re-united with her husband. 

They lived together in Lythgo’s Row and had seven children.  Sadly, five of the children did not survive infancy and they are buried, with their parents in the cemetery of St Mark’s Anglican Church in Pontville.  The surviving children married free settlers and descendants still live in the area. 

This is the most romantic of the cottages and is popular with honeymooners or couples having anniversaries – or just wanting romantic time out.

  Upstairs is a cosy attic bedroom, accessed through a sitting room.

Downstairs are: the lounge room, with open fireplace; the fully self-contained kitchen; and the bathroom/laundry.
