Dixons Kingdom Hut, situated in Jaffa Vale, deep in the heart of the beautiful Walls of Jerusalem National Park, is a favourite landmark, well known to bushwalkers in this area

In 1987, the Walls of Jerusalem was the location for the filming of ‘The Tale of Ruby Rose’. It was proposed to use Dixons Kingdom Hut as a backdrop and, to this end, several structural alterations and additions were made to the hut.  Ultimately, the hut was not used in the film and in 1998 the services of MHPS members were used to reinstate it to its original condition as well as replace the roof which was, by then, in need of significant maintenance.

In May 2023, as part of the works plan schedule for the Walls of Jerusalem National Park, prepared by the Heritage Division of PWS, MHPS was once again  offered the opportunity to participate in repairs and maintenance with the building and fitting of a new door to the hut along with replacing split timber cladding surrounding the doorway.  The door was reconstructed to match early 1980s historic images supplied by Heritage, to closely replicate that of the original hut door.  Evidence would indicate a progression of doors over time and this is likely the fourth to be fitted to the hut.
