Statement of Significance

The ruins are a memorial to what was once a thriving gold mining town and are a reminder of a way of life that no longer exists in Kookynie.

Physical Description

The ruins comprise three external brick walls laid in colonial bond, rendered on the internal face. A door opening on the west elevation with a timber threshold and lintel and with a curved brick flat arch appears to have been altered over the years. The opening of the fanlight has been bricked up. No physical evidence remains of the roof or floor.
