View looking towards the main gallery. The property includes two houses - one an early twentieth century farmhouse, the other a house designed by Sydney Ancher in 1960. The property was purchased in the 1940' s by artists Margo & Gerald Lewers, who then created the large garden. The gallery was bequeathed to Penrith City Council by Margo & Gerald's daughter. The gallery was opened in 1981. It is believed that prior to the Lewers purchasing the property it was a pig farm.
