Grossmann House and Brough House

Overview

In historic Church Street, Maitland’s National Trust properties, Grossmann and Brough Houses are mirror-imaged Victorian townhouses built in 1870 by business partners Samuel Owens and Isaac Beckett.

The two properties have had varied lives: Entcliffe, known for most of its life as Grossmann House, was a private residence for the Becketts and Maitland Girls High School until the mid-1960s, and now as a fully restored and furnished Victorian house museum.

Brough House was also a private residence for a number of years, a boarding house, a hostel for the schoolgirls, and the Maitland Art Gallery, and now has renewed life as an area for displays and exhibitions.

Brough House has rotating exhibitions of The Australian Museum of Clothing and Textiles to keep the experience fresh and engage visitors with the wider collection. Brough House also holds The Fibre Makers Space that hosts an annual Artist in Residence. An exhibition of work completed by the artist during their residency is on display at the end of their residency.

Catering can be arranged for smaller functions and house tours; the venue is suitable for smaller conferences; the house and garden are a perfect venue for boutique weddings.

Disability access to the ground floor areas.
