Condition

Generally Belay Homestead Group, Walkaway is in fair condition. Most of the buildings in the group are habitable and utilised although not necessarily for the original function; the Homestead is still the residence, the Dairy and Shepherd’s Cottage are both used for storage, the Groom’s Room is vacant, and the Mill has been adapted to function as a residence, although not used for that purpose for many years.
