Woolpack Inn, Billabong. Near Holbrook, NSW.
« on: Saturday 20 July 13 11:15 BST (UK) »
Seeking information and/or photos of the Woolpack Inn at Little Billabong (Little Billy Bong).  In 1855 Henry Adams was the licencee, and in 1860 he was at the Australian Arms Hotel in Billabong. Apparently there were a number of Woolpack Inns, as they were burnt down from time to time!

Thank you

There is a PDF article  called People in the landscapes A Biography of two villages written by J.H Winston-Gregson . It mentions Henry in relation to the Woolpack Inn and gives other details about him. Take Care Lynette
