Condition
Lady Novar Hostel (fmr), Wyalkatchem is in fair to good condition as a result of continued occupancy and care. There is evidence of possible structural failure of the timber stumps under the north-eastern side of the building where there are some significant internal cracks. There are some leaks to the roof on the south-western side of the building. Internally and externally timber weatherboard cladding and paneling and timber joinery are in good condition. The masonry chimneys are sound and the original rough-cast render and brick decoration are in good condition. Fibrous cement paneling may contain asbestos products. The once well-tended gardens are in poor condition as a result of lack of water. The place has moderate integrity and moderate to high authenticity.
