A large open fireplace with a beehive oven is the main attraction in the dairy. The artefacts range from kitchen and domestic items to an acetylene generator for producing gas lighting for a local hotel. The kitchen has a victorian range and a fine display or irons and wash day implements.
Upstairs there are two rooms, one with a display or cameras and mining artefacts and the other with farming implements, joiners tools, a cobbler's corner and a cinematic projector.
