Reception

The Wallpapered Manse has been called "an outstanding example of the skills of a leading conservation architect"[2] and "a fascinating story of renovation and the recovery of more than just a house."[3]

It was shortlisted in the 2014 New South Wales Premier's History Awards for the New South Wales Community and Regional History prize[4] and highly commended in the 2013 NSW National Trust Heritage Awards for Education Interpretation and Community Engagement.[5]

gollark: Great, tell me when you're finished.
gollark: Say I want to have "edit distance from previous revision" in my revision list (which looks like this) for every row.
gollark: Plus more flaky logic to handle the difference in diffing (coming eventuallyâ„¢).
