Penn Cottage Museum of
Pressed Glass
Even the most avid collectors are in awe
of Penn Cottage Museum of Pressed
Glass, Australia’s largest collection of
pressed glassware.
Jamestown couple Kevin and Margaret
Conway love glassware so much they
have converted most of their home into
a museum to showcase their 14,000
piece collection.
Allow two hours to wander through the
collection, which features pieces dating
back to 1846.
Group bookings are welcome. Ring the
Conways in advance, as sometimes they
are away collecting.
Open: 10 am till late
