ENJOY A HERITAGE HIGH TEA<br />
The Wanneroo Museum<br />
invites you to enjoy a<br />
traditional high tea set in<br />
the grounds of historic<br />
Buckingham House.<br />
Built between 1880 and<br />
1890, Buckingham House<br />
was home to John and Emily<br />
Amelia Buckingham and their<br />
seven children.<br />
Over the years Buckingham<br />
House was the home to other<br />
prominent Wanneroo families<br />
including the Ashby family and<br />
George Tapping. The City of<br />
Wanneroo acquired the home<br />
in the 1970s.<br />
Following careful restoration,<br />
it was officially opened as a<br />
heritage homestead for the<br />
community to enjoy and to<br />
learn about the early colonial<br />
history of Western Australia.<br />
The afternoon includes a<br />
guided tour of the house.<br />
