Australians have spent more time than ever at home in the last two-and-a-half years, so it is little wonder some have become curious about what has gone on within their own four walls.
National Library of Australia reference librarian Ella Morrison says the COVID pandemic has spurred an increase in interest in house history.
"With lockdown and people spending more time in their homes and examining the environments around them, we've definitely got an influx of house-history-related questions," she said.
