The Main Residence at Lunzua Agricutluaa Station, Abercorn in the 1950s.

This high roofed house was built by Unwin Moffat when the station moved from The Gardens on the Lucheche Stream to a site about 14 mile down the Kasama Road. The Station later became a staff training centre and was the first home of the Outward Bound School that later moved to Mr Laskie's House Kitula on the Mpulungu Road.
