Lightning Ridge Heritage Cottage

Galleries, Museums and Collections

The Lightning Ridge Heritage Cottage Museum is a 1932 miner's hut that lets you 'step back in time'. It is full of memorabilia and you can purchase historical booklets plus select craft.
Lightning Ridge Heritage Cottage
The Museum features a relocated and refurbished 1915 nurse's cottage in the backyard and is a tribute to all bush nurses. The illuminated tableau of Nurse Lucy in the front windows attracts daily attention and with permanent and changing displays extending onto the wide verandah, it's a place for reflection. The patio is spacious with comfortable seating and the backyard features mining icons in a garden setting. This is a quiet place off the main street for conversation and or lunch.
