www.waverock.com.au/lace.htm provides a brief description of the Lace Place in Hyden which I visited a few years ago to see the Irish crochet lace collection.
It is well worth a visit and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It is not well known in the tourist industry and I needed help to find out about the bus service. It is a considerable distance from Perth. The small town and the people were delightful. The part time curator, Olwyn Scott is a remarkable lacemaker and a wonderful guide.

Com Subject: [lace] The Lace Place Hi to Australian Lacemakers, my son has just returned from a tour of Australia mainly out of Perth. On his trip he came across a shop called The Lace Place in small town called Hyden. he went in because he knew how I liked lace and was surprised to find it was like a little museum of lace from 1650 onwards. He brought me back a leaflet describing the shop and museum but unfortunately although I emailed them to see if they had a website my email was returned as undeliverable. Have any of you visited?
