Our Story
History
Stone Keepers Run is part of the original landholding of John Allan and was known as ‘Tooram Run’. Tooram, an indigenous word, means ‘good fishing place’.
Allansford is named after these early settlers. Much of the land where the township now sits was donated by the Allan family. John and Caroline raised eight children and many of the local streets bear their names.
The Federation style home dates from the early 1900’s and sits next door to the original 1870’s bluestone cheese factory.
Subsequent owners of Tooram Run developed the property into one of the most respected dairy farms and cheese producers in the country.
