Waverley Ranch House Ruins

Highlight • Historical Site

Waverley Ranch House ruins are historically known as the Waverley Chimney, as the chimney is most of what remains. The ruins sit fenced off on a corner of the Bowbend Trail. The ruins are from a ranch from 1896 where immigrants from England settled here. When building their homestead, the Cockbaines mistakenly constructed the ranch house and outbuildings on the wrong parcel of land, so the government overlooked the error and officially granted them the title to the property. Today, what remains is the chimney of the original 1896 homestead, and to prevent vandalism or destruction from roaming cows, the area is completely fenced off, but easy to see from the paved path.
