“Fairholme” stands on the corner of Broughton and Market Streets Singleton. The land on which it stands was originally granted to Benjamin Singleton in appreciation for his part in the discovery of the Central Hunter Region in 1820, but early in 1842 Thomas Burdekin, a Sydney hardware merchant and moneylender foreclosed on Benjamin Singleton’s estate, after breaking his word to renew a loan of 2,100 pounds and most of the vacant land in Singletons’s grant, consisting of over 1000 allotments of building blocks in the town area became legally owned by Burdekin.
The “Fairholme” site was eventually sold by Burdekin’s widow to Albert John Gould, a Singleton solicitor, on September 25, 1877, and in mid 1878, a start was made on the building of a home for Albert Gould.
On June 5th, 1911, Sir Albert Gould sold “Fairholme” to Mr John Searle, who was manager of the Singleton Central Co-operative Dairy Co Ltd, and four years later, on June 1,1915, Mr Searle sold the property to Mrs Lillie May Maffey, the wife of Dr R W H Maffey.
