"Oldbury the Painting" is a truly unique art piece that tells a historic story. Created in an updated traditional style depicting the relevance to the Atkinson family and the Oldbury property at Sutton Forest built in the late Georgian Era. The central feature is the original stone farmhouse with a surrounding illustrated manuscript border painted in a style that is an all but lost craft; there is also a time line inset within the border.

Note: Oldbury is a privately owned home and is not open to the public; please respect the owner’s privacy.

The fabulous assistance we received from Mrs Linda Emery and Mr David Baxter of the Berrima District Historical & Family History Society towards researching the Gale family that built our own late Victorian home in the Southern Highlands was later to become the inspiration to create “Oldbury the Painting”.
