Hi Jennifer I lived in Gunning for about three years from 1981 to 1984. The town is a shadow of its former self and even when I was there there were many deserted builings. I have just checked my copy of "Historical Landmarks of Gunning Shire", no mention, which suggests it is no longer standing. However perhaps by contacting the Gunning Historical Society, don't worry about an exact address, there's only 10 people and two dogs there, a letter will find them. Colin Brown was the contact in 1992. Another book which I only have extracts from is "A Glimpse of the History of Gunning/Tempe Longmire may be useful.
