Bundarra had been recently altered (c.1928). Architect for this may have been Hardy Wilson as he was a close friend of Prof. & Mrs A.M. Welsh who lived in Sherwood" opposite the Allards with whom they were also very friendly. The house reflects Wilson's style" -- Pencil note in the front of the album of photographs of Bundarra by H. Cazneaux
