A large modern house with a slate roof and dormer windows. The house is approached by a drive lined with roses. A plaque on the front of the building, visible in slide 4690/216, has the wording 'Republica Argentina' & an unidentified logo. This may be the house of Don Diego Neill, Intendente of Los Alerces National Park with whom Kyffin Williams stayed for a time in December 1968. See slide 4690/216 for another view of this house.
