In Scotland, and many countries with Scottish connections, Saint Andrew's Day is marked with a celebration of Scottish culture, and with traditional Scottish food and music. In Scotland, the day is also seen as the start of a season of Scottish winter festivals encompassing Saint Andrew's Day. About Us!
Overnewton Castle was built by Scotsman, William Taylor in 1849, who bought 13,000 acres of rich grazing land just west of the Keilor township. Taylor originally built a simple single-story bluestone colonial-style homestead, but in 1859, after returning from a trip to Scotland, he turned the functional colonial homestead into a miniature Scottish Baronial Castle. The Stately two-storied wing was added, along with the blue stone Dairy & Butcher Shop and the Private Billiard room. William Taylor and his wife Helen, together with their family of six sons and four daughters lived in the homestead attended by up to fifteen staff. Today Overnewton Castle remains an iconic piece of historic architecture with a rich past and strong commitment to sharing Keilor's fascinating Scottish heritage. Fun fact: The suburbs we know today as Taylor's Lakes and Taylors Hill were named after Mr. Taylor himself.
