Iwii Paradise is Pure Paradise Norfolk Island

This 3900 sqm freehold property has significant historical value to Norfolk Island as we draw to a “World Heritage” status based on the convict era.

This property is the original home site of John Drummond, First Fleeter and crew member of HMS Sirius.

Drummond was a Master Gunner, then Beach Master for Norfolk, a most important and trusted position.

Drummond was also a founding member of the first Masonic Club in Australasia as member of the St. John’s Lodge No: 1, which commenced here in Norfolk Island. Masonic meetings would have been held on this property in early 1800’s.

Drummond, a free settler after the wreck of Sirius in 1791 was granted this land by Governor Phillip Gidley King, created his home on this site called “Drummond’s Run”. This property also appears on all period maps of Norfolk. Similar Runs were: Proctors Run, Philemon Run and Morgan’s Run, made famous by Colleen McCullough’s novel of the same name.
