An enjoyable, informative experience in a beautiful heritage-listed house
Lydham Hall Historic House and Museum的点评
点评：Lydham Hall is a beautiful historic home in Rockdale in Sydney, dating from the 1860s or 1870s (despite the plaque near the front door that says 1855!) It is owned by the Bayside Council and has been managed as a museum since 1971 by the St George Historical Society. It is currently opened to the public on the first Sunday of every month, except January, between 10.00am and 4.00pm, and for group bookings on other days, as arranged. Entry is $8 for adults, less for pensioners, quite reasonable.
The house is full of artefacts from life in 19th and early 20th century Australia, over 1500 items according to the Society. The best thing is that this is a tactile museum; the items are, mostly, not displayed in glass cases, but accessible to pick up, turn over, and examine (gently). The piano is even able to be played, although it needed a tuning last time I was there. The guides, all volunteers, are knowledgeable, and happily talk of the research they do to improve and update that knowledge.
They have excellent catering on site too - their Devonshire teas attract return business on their own, and the pumpkin soup in winter is highly popular. There are booklets and books of local historical interest for sale at bargain prices, too. I picked up several. If the weather is fine, the garden is beautiful, too - sit outside and soak it in. There are views all the way to Botany Bay.
The house is a Victorian sandstone building with marble fireplaces. I love it and have been back several times. In fact, if you join the Historical Society, re-entry to the museum becomes free. They also have entertainment and special exhibitions from time to time - a local band played the last time I was there, and I understand they have an opera singer booked for February! Highly recommended.

翻译：莱德汉姆庄园是悉尼罗克代尔一栋美丽的历史住宅，建于 19 世纪 60 年代或 70 年代（尽管前门附近的牌匾上写着 1855 年！）。庄园归 Bayside Council 所有，自 1971 年以来一直由圣乔治历史协会管理，作为博物馆。目前，庄园每月第一个周日（一月除外）上午 10:00 至下午 4:00 向公众开放，其他日子则按安排接受团体预订。成人入场费为 8 美元，退休人员入场费更低，相当合理。
庄园里摆满了 19 世纪和 20 世纪早期澳大利亚生活的文物，据协会称，有超过 1500 件。最棒的是，这是一个触觉博物馆；这些物品大多不在玻璃柜中展示，而是可以拿起、翻转和检查（轻轻地）。这里甚至可以弹钢琴，尽管我上次去的时候需要调音。导游都是志愿者，知识渊博，乐于谈论他们为改进和更新知识所做的研究。
现场餐饮也很棒 - 他们的德文郡茶吸引了回头客，冬天的南瓜汤非常受欢迎。还有以便宜价格出售的有关当地历史的小册子和书籍。我买了几本。如果天气好，花园也很漂亮 - 坐在外面沉浸其中。一路上都能看到植物湾的景色。
房子是一座维多利亚式砂岩建筑，有大理石壁炉。我很喜欢，已经回来过好几次了。事实上，如果你加入历史学会，重新进入博物馆是免费的。他们还不时举办娱乐活动和特别展览 - 上次我去的时候，当地乐队演奏，据我所知，他们已经预定了二月份的歌剧演唱家！强烈推荐。
