Interesting old house. Not sure of the history. There is a beautiful lagoon just down the track from here wit lily pads galore!

Google search - St Vidgeon Homestead Ruins portray a story of hardship in the outback. St Vidgeon station ruins are the most recent of three built since 1888. The first was destroyed by floods, the second by white ants and fire and this one, built in 1960, by a cyclone. . Below the homestead ruins is this beautiful lagoon fed by the flood waters of the Roper River. This large water-lily covered lagoon is a haven for birdlife. From here to Roper River Bar the road follows the South bank of the Roper River and has many fishing spots along its length.
