Revisit: House on the water
.

View from the kitchen of a homestead, abandoned when land was acquired to build a reservoir in the mid 1940s. The homestead partially floods when the reservoir is full. The kitchen is physically separate to the homestead, and is built using different stone. The walls are also more colourful than the plain plaster of the homestead. The original window view would have been looking towards a distant river, rather than a nearby body of water.
