First entry:
The Stone Hut Soldiers Memorial Hall, Sth Aust.
Opened in 1926, originally erected to commemorate those who served in World War One.
Now dedicated in memory of those who served in conflicts in which Australia has been involved.

2nd Entry: Newnes Hotel Nsw
Originally built in 1907, and is the only remaining building of the former mining town.
It was originally located on the opposite side of the road.
Floods in 1986 undermined the building and in July 1987 it was moved to its current location.
It took 3 days to dismantle and rebuild by a group of volunteers.
It is no longer a hotel.

3rd Entry: Silverton Hotel Nsw.
Built in 1885 it was originally the Post Office.
In 1918 it became the pub after the original hotel burnt down.
(Silverton is also where BHP first kicked off)
