Newnes

After a rough day's work in the city, it's important to see how rough it was in the past at Newnes.

Try to avoid mist with rocks in it

Just follow the road beside the Wolgan River

Left, right, left, right...

Watch out for those rocks

Look down - you can't miss it.
(Sadly, this topographical map does: it shows the hotel's old position on the eastern side of the road.)

Spin around the coke ovens

Look out for wires...

(Tracking South)

Drop down...

(Tracking north)

... and there you are!

Aah!

Cross the river...

and check out the ruins.
