The North Eastern Hotel was once a beautiful building. The owner who lives in the building refuses to maintain it. Apparently on the corner of the building is the Pub which is beautiful inside so we were told.
Below photo is the back of the Hotel.
The RSL Have several statues of their late towns men who fought in the War.
This tree below is near by in the park.
The bridge that goes over the Seven Creeks.
The Weir down the other end.
The weir across Seven Creeks at Euroa formed the pre-Olympic swimming
pool for the town. Pre-Olympic swimming pools in Victoria are those
that were replaced by standard 8-lane, chlorinated 50 metre Olympic
swimming pools in the swimming pool funding spree leading up to
the 1956 Melbourne Olympics.
Pity about the old pub. Perhaps it is demolition by neglect.
ReplyDeleteHopefully one day when the lady dies that owns the pub someone might restore it and make it viable in some way.
DeleteI would have liked to have seen the inside of the hotel and the pub. Maybe next time. :)
ReplyDeleteThought about going inside to see what it was like in the pub area, but didn't as it was getting a bit late.
DeleteThat first shot makes me want to get out of town.
ReplyDeleteRoad Trip!!!
Ah yes, that hill was steep with a fairly nice view.
DeletePequeña población, donde se puede descansar, sin las prisas que hay en la ciudad. L Naturaleza ahí, da buenas muestras de belleza.
ReplyDeleteBesos
Definitely no rushing about which is good, then I don't usually rush about anyway.
DeleteDefinitely a pity about the pub. It wouldn't be cheap to restore though - or to restore properly anyway.
ReplyDeleteCost a fortune to restore but I expect the women that owns it wouldn't have the money.
Deletethat's a nice statue
ReplyDeleteIt's a beauty Adam.
DeleteThat looks a nice little town. Population 309?! I bet everyone knows each other’s business!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure they do in that country area :)
DeleteShame about the rundown pub........seems a bit odd. I wonder if the owner is a bit old and just has a licencee running the bar area. Certainly does not appear to have any residents, eg: school teachers, bank "johnnies" etc.
ReplyDeleteVery odd situation, Margaret indeed.
A building just going to waste really.
Country towns certainly do "Honour the Fallen Sons and Daughters" of conflicts,
especially after "The War supposedly to end all wars! (1914-18).

A women owns that pub Colin and another man has the pub area.
DeleteYou are correct in the building looking not the best.
I loved all the photos and enjoyed your post about them all. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteLovely view from the hills!
ReplyDeleteWas nice up there.
DeleteHello Margaret,
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures. Impressive to see that statue.
Greetings, Marco
Thanks Marco.
DeleteThe statue reminds me of the one we have nearby. It's of a Confederate soldier from the Civil War.
ReplyDeleteDon't think I've seen a photo of that one.
DeleteLovely reflections in the water ...
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Thanks
DeleteWhat a shame that hotel isn't maintained. Perhaps the owner can't afford it?
ReplyDeleteI like the duck :)
I'm sure it's expensive and the owner doesn't have the money but then she could and doesn't want to part with her money...
DeleteWhat an elegant old hotel! It would be a tourist attraction, for sure!
ReplyDeleteThe reflections of the bridge are lovely! Great tour!
The Hotel could be put back to it's forma glory, but alas!
DeleteThe betting and the horse racing fraternity of this area - Euroa, would be
ReplyDeletemaybe somewhat richer today!!!
The winner of Saturday's Caulfield Cup is trained in that area.
Seems David Hayes has a big training and spelling operation in
the Euroa horse breeding area.
Colin
