... Mt Difficult Quarry... at Heatherlie (Mt Difficult) quarry. Cottage made from sawnand off-cuts... at Heatherlie (Mt Difficult) quarry. Cottage made from sawnand off-cuts ...It is believed that the three stone cottages in the area were built c.1930 by Italian stonemasons. This cottage is a single room with open fireplace at one end. A hole was dug in the floor inside which a small drum was sunk and covered by a wooden lid. It served as a cool box for the storage of perishable food. It is not known when the cottage was last occupied but during the 1970s the drum was removed and the pit filled in for safety reasons. Photo shows 6 men standing in front of stone cottage at Heatherlie (Mt Difficult) quarry. Cottage made from sawnand off-cuts of stone with stone window frames and door lintel. Rough bush-pole awning at right hand end of cottage.houses, mt difficult quarry -
