About the Historical walk

A self-guided walking tour of 9 historic hotels in Mt Gambier.

In early South Australia, publicans were required by law to cater for “…a traveller and his horse, or a traveller without a horse, the horse of a traveller not becoming a guest of the house, or any corpse which might be brought to his public house for the purpose of a coroner’s inquest.” Any publican not providing these services was liable to a £20 fine.
