Blacksmith's Shop
The Blacksmith's Shop or "Smithy" was the hub of activity on the early runs. The blacksmith repaired carts, wagons and drays. He made tools, wheels, nails, horseshoes, gates, well-buckets and domestic utensils.
The original Wilpena Blacksmith's Shop is no longer standing. In 1888 it was described as a pug and pine building in fair condition. It was valued at 16 pounds and 15 shillings ($35).
The Smithy was built in 1921.
No trace remains of a cart shed that was attached to the building.
