History
The Manor was completed in 1900 as a two-story home and surgery for Dr W T
Burgess. The building was designed by his brother Harry Burgess who planned to
incorporate the Old Temperence Hall built 25 years earlier.
Dr Burgess was an alderman on the Wagga Wagga City Council from 1897 to 1900.
In 1925, Ms Trengrove and her daughter Iris moved into 38 Morrow Street, then
called "Wollundry", which they operated as a boarding house.
In 1937, the building was taken over by the Armed Forces and used for
accommodation for Service Women.
After the war, the YMCA first rented, then purchased the building. For three decades,
it fulfilled the purpose of providing young people working and studying in Wagga
Wagga with a pleasant home in the centre of the city.
In 1975 the building was sold to the N.O.W. Ministry.
In 1983, Barbara and James Little purchased 38 Morrow Street and commenced
restoring the upstairs area. Ashort time after purchasing this historic Wagga Wagga
landmark, they opened "The Manor" Restaurant. They have completely restored this
magnificent building with its old world charm and have operated it as a successful
guesthouse and restaurant.
