  • The Homestead As Fortress: Fact Or Folklore? Heather Burke, Lynley A
    The homestead as fortress: Fact or folklore? Heather Burke, Lynley A . Wallis, Bryce Barker, Megan Tutty, Noelene Cole, Iain Davidson, Elizabeth Hatte and Kelsey Lowe Introduction Houses are quintessential statements of identity, encoding elements of personal and social attitudes, aspirations and realities. As functional containers for human life, they reflect the exigencies of their construction and occupation, as well as the alterations that ensued as contexts, occupants and uses changed. As older houses endure into subsequent social contexts, they become drawn into later symbolic landscapes, connoting both past and present social relationships simultaneously and connecting the two via the many ways they are understood and represented in the present. As historical archaeologist Anne Yentsch has argued: ‘Many cultural values, including ideas about power relationships and social inequality, are expressed within the context of the stories surrounding houses’.1 This paper is one attempt to investigate the stories surrounding a ruined pastoral homestead in central northern Queensland in light of relationships between non-Aboriginal and Aboriginal people on the frontier. The stone ruins of Cambridge Downs homestead (Figure 1) are situated on the banks of the Stawell River in the Burke District of central north Queensland, approximately 30 kilometres north-west of the township of Richmond (Figure 2). Cambridge Downs was first established in 1864, at a time when pastoralists were expanding into much of north and west Queensland. The station continued to operate until the end of World War II, when it was divided and re-leased as part 1 Yentsch 1988: 11. 151 ABORIGINAL HISTORY VOL 41 2017 of the soldier settlement scheme.2 In celebration of Cambridge Downs’s history as a foundational European settlement for the region, the Richmond Shire Council opened a replica of the homestead in the town of Richmond in 2009 (Figure 3).
