Known as Lake Ball Hut

Located on the north side of Lake Ball, Central Highlands.

History

Lake Ball hut was built in 1968 (some say 1971) by Boy Miles and friends, Wayne Spaulding and Kevin Cornish to support local fishing.

The Lake Ball Hut has some damage, and a recent Conservation Plan supported repairs in the summer of 2003-4 by Mole Creek bushman.

Construction

Typical Tasmanian split softwood shingles and thin vertical slabs over a wooden frame. Dirt floor and chimney.
