Condition

Very Good. The Register entry includes the Administration çbuilding and the land on which it stands, being çpart of Swan Location 11544 on Reserve 9868, as çdefined in Heritage Council drawing number çYNP-4. This building first served as both office and çresidence for the Park superintendent. It was çbuilt in the early 1930's at the same time as the çlodges and inn. Like them it is built of local çstone. The front porch - verandah with steps çleading up to it - is partly enclosed by rough çstone walls and the roof is supported by heavy çcolumns. The roof is tiled. Although the entire çbuilding now serves as offices, the residential çsection has been little altered. The building is çsurrounded by large trees with attractive çgardens at the front.
