Step inside Crawford House Museum, a beautifully restored Federation-era farmhouse offering a glimpse into life on the Alstonville Plateau from the early 1900s through to the 1960s. Originally built in 1910 for newlyweds William Ambrose Crawford and his bride, Olive, the home - once known as Olivene - was carefully restored by the Alstonville Plateau Historical Society and opened as a museum in 2003. Today, visitors can explore authentic household items, personal artefacts and thoughtfully curated displays that reflect how local families lived, worked and built community across generations. Beyond the home itself, the museum features a dedicated research room with an extensive collection of historical records and resources relating to Ballina Shire. It is a valuable hub for family history research, local studies and anyone interested in uncovering the stories of the Booyung and Pearces Creek districts, including works by respected local historian Ian Kirkland. Crawford House Museum offers an engaging and nostalgic experience for history enthusiasts, researchers and curious visitors alike. Support workers accompanying a client receive free admission.
