This is a panorama from the top of Talana hill. Smith's farm is in the centre of the picture and the rest of the museum to the left, Dundee lies just to the right of centre.

Smith Cottage with Talana Hill in the background



The verandah was used as a dressing station for the wounded during the battle.
