Historic Dransfield's Mill, the Archer Gallery, Millpond Carriages and Millpond Alpacas

Millpond Farm at Jembaicumbene, just outside Braidwood on the Major's Creek Road, is home of the historic Dransfield's Mill, the Archer Gallery, Millpond Carriages and Millpond Alpacas.

The property has a rich colonial history, and over the past two centuries has produced prize winning wheat, sheep and cattle. Gold was discovered at Jembaicumbene in 1851 and a variety of important historic gold mining sites and 19th century buildings survive within a spectacular natural wetland in the middle Jembaicumbene valley.

We restore, buy & sell, auction and value antique carriages and Australian and European antiques, and conduct carriage driving and furniture restoration courses.

Millpond Farm is being restored at present, and while several activities are operating visits are by appointment only until the Archer Gallery opens in our Mill later this year.

Our auction program features several annual sales of horse drawn carriages, antiques and collectables. In late 2010 these will continue in the first stage of Dransfield's Mill.

The 25 acre wetland is being carefully developed to include bird hides and walking trails around a magnificent chain of ponds sustaining a remarkable variety of wildlife and native water plants. Our grazing property supports our carriage horses, Suffolk sheep, Angora goats and our young herd of fine Alpacas, the wool from which is being used to develop a variety of high quality textiles.
