Former Border Gate Hotel

There has been an Hotel here since at least the 1870's. The Hotel closed c1986 and is now the Border Gate Truck stop. (The right part of the building is in South Australia.)

Ed. Locals said the border divided the bar and there was a line drawn across the middle of the Bar to show you which State you were drinking in.
