Fodor's Review:

Broadgreen is a fine example of a Victorian cob house. Cob houses, made from straw and horsehair bonded together with mud and clay, are commonly found in Devon, the southern English home county of many of Nelson's pioneers. The house is furnished as it might have been in the 1850s, with patchwork quilts and kauri furniture.
