The Engine House:

This heritage building is the heart of our museum, and houses our main gasworks displays including working steam driven exhausters and pumps.

The building has many points of interest and our team can take tours to show people the exhibits. The building can be hired as a static display suitable for photographic shoots or other product launches.

This  area can seat up to 50 people seated.

If needed, our engineers can steam up and have the plant running. This does require them to be onsite up to 4 hours before the time of your event.

The Engine House contains bathroom facilities and a kitchenette.

Rates
Static display  $25.00 per hour (minimum charge 2 hours)   
Steamed up with working machinery $50.00 per hour (minimum charge 2 hours)
