Home of Janet Frame in Oamaru

Back to our visit to Oamaru.
After some lunch we ventured down  to 56 Eden Street just west of our hostel to visit the childhood home of Janet Frame.  We had met the fellow who is the curator here at the radio museum earlier in the day. 
The house is a snug bungalow on a large lot with an abundant garden behind the house. Janet Frame, born in 1923, lived here from 1931 to 1943.
