O'DONNELL HOUSE COMPLEX - History
The place was occupied sometime after 1921 when the Mount Violet Estate was purchased and subdivided for WWI soldier settlement. A bushfire swept though the district in January 1944 and reportedly destroyed the O'Donnell house and outbuildings. The existing wooden structure likely dates after 1944. It is not currently known when the O'Donnells sold the property.
O'DONNELL HOUSE COMPLEX - Archaeological Significance
The site represents a typical WWI soldier settlement for pastoral development. The place has moderate potential for subsurface archaeological deposits at the former house site and other demolished structures if their locations are able to be identified.
