At approximately 11am on Monday 10 February 1879 Ned Kelly and Joe Byrne - dressed in police uniforms and accompanied by Trooper Harry Richards - entered the front bar which at that time was located in the still extant single-storey section of the hotel, as well as the travellers' accommodation at the rear. Ned informed the hotel licensee Charles Cox that he required a room for a few hours to put the people in as they came along "for I have come here to stick up the Bank today."

Meal
A few of us had a meal (and l use that word loosely) at your hotel last Saturday night 17th Sept 2011 and l can say that it was the worst meal l and some of the others have ever had. And the service behind the bar wasn't much better to the extent that l could not be bothered to order any drinks.
Bistro meal
