Good This residence appears to have been built in the 1920s for Stanley Francis Bridge and his family. Bridge was the manager of the Maylands Blind School and had a residence in Maylands. This residence appears to have been a 'summer home' or a 'weekend retreat' for the family and visitors. In 1931, a serious fire gutted the building leaving only the stone walls. The home was rebuilt and by 1937, the place was being used as a guest house. In 1940 it was offered for occupants as a rental.
