The ACT Fire Brigade has responded multiple resources this morning to a fire at the historic Lanyon Homestead in Tuggeranong.

Crews arrived on scene to find a barn on the property well alight.

Firefighters have extinguished the blaze which completely destroyed the structure.

The fire did not affect the historic homestead itself.

The cause will be investigated.

I hope it wasn’t the old woolshed near the shearers’ quarters a kilometre away from the main house …

It’s having a music festival this afternoon, thankfully not in the barn.

Wasn’t there some sort of truck thing on there this weekend? Or maybe I’m getting my homesteads mixed up again..
