- Bradmans Birthplace. 89 Adams St Ph: 2 6940 2160
Bradman's birthplace is open to the public daily from 9.00am to 5.00pm except Good Friday & Christmas Day.
Granny Scholz, the mid-wife who delivered "The greatest batsman the world has ever known" Sir Donald Bradman on 27th August
1908, operated a small private hospital in the front room of the building.
It was refurbished in 1991, and was carefully restored for the official opening on 23rd October 1992.
The cottage contains memorabilia of Sir Don, of cricket and of the Cootamundra district.
Admission to the Birthplace is $3.00 (2009) for adults and children under 16 are free.
The property next door to Bradman's Birthplace, called Memorabilia Cottage, contains a display of nostalgic curios,
bric-a-brac and Australian memorabilia, much of which dates back to the era when Sir Donald Bradman was born.
The collection is on loan to Council from Peter and Jenny Cash who created the collection over a number of years and have
painstakingly taken every opportunity to increase their collection.
