A Home Away From

Home

There are not many places in the world these days where you can rent a solid stone house for only a pound or so a week. But that's all you have to pay for this unfurnished building on Norfolk Island, which is under the control of the Administration. The building has a lounge room, two bedrooms, and a kitchen, and is near the waterfront at Sydney Bay. In Norfolk's convict days, it was the office of the Royal Engineers.

Recently, the Administration was planning to do the building up and to lease it on an annual or five-yearly basis.
