The Lena Kennedy Shack

The Lena Kennedy Shack has a blue plaque and was owned by my parents—the author Lena Kennedy and my dad put up the shack in the 1950s. 

At this time, there were many shack dwellers in the woodlands. The Shack was a place my mother used to sometimes write her stories under candlelight, and there is much memorabilia there.

The shack is kept much like it was in those times, with scrap books to look through containing much about my mother's career. On the wall are newspaper articles from different parts of the world where she visited, promoting her books. There will be some of her books to peruse, and people can hear something about her story of becoming a famous author at the age of 64.
