Join us for an exclusive curator-led tour of National Trust Property Mulberry Hill. 

Designed by Harold Desbrowe Annear, this magnificent American colonial-style home was built in 1926 as an extension to a pre-existing 1880s weatherboard cottage.

Sir Daryl Lindsay was Director of the National Gallery of Victoria from 1941 to 1956, and was knighted in 1957 for his services to Australian art. A member of the famous Lindsay family of artists, he was an accomplished painter and printmaker. He also assisted in founding the National Trust of Australia (Victoria) in 1956 and was its first president.

His wife, Lady Joan Lindsay, was an artist and writer. She was best known for her novel Picnic at Hanging Rock. Her autobiographical novel Time without Clocks reminisces about the Lindsays' lives together, with wonderful descriptions of Mulberry Hill and commentary about the arts and social history of the time.

The house and its contents - including a collection of Australian art, Georgian furniture and glassware and Staffordshire ceramics - was bequeathed to the National Trust by Sir Daryl and Lady Joan Lindsay.
