When carpenter Kate and her mother Ann buy two old prospecting huts for $100,000 in Clydesdale in regional Victoria, they take on 180 years’ worth of dilapidation.
Kate and Ann think the two huts are worth saving but it won’t be easy.
With a tiny budget and a focus on traditional techniques, the question is: will they be able to bring these relics back from the brink and will they be practical places to live?
