Description: The Dead Finish Museum is housed in the oldest building in Beverley. The building was originally called the Wheatsheaf Inn and was built by Alfred Smith in 1872. It now houses a very fine collection of artifacts depicting life in Beverley since settlement in 1831. Of particular significance are the many hand-made tools, gifts, clothes and pieces of furniture, highlighting the make-do attitude and creative skill of early settlers.
