Known as Millers Hut
Location
Millers Hut is on Long Plain, about 2 Km off the Port Phillip Fire Trail, to the south. There is no track to the hut, although one is forming as more people visit the hut. The pad follows the creek gently uphill, but the creek will stop most 4WD vehicles coming too close. Grid Reference on the Tantangara Map Ed.2 is 424476.
Brief History
Millers was built of second hand materials by Theo and Bill Miller in 1943, but some say it was in about 1938. It is a favourite place for people seeking peace and quiet, being easily accessible, but not shown on maps, nor commonly known about.
Construction
A wooden floor is a key feature in an otherwise galvanised iron hut (both walls and roof). A chimney of iron also, with a rock hearth.
