Great Northern Highways forgotten hotel

Heading north on Great Northern Highway, just beyond New Norcia, you might have noticed several derelict buildings. These were once the Victoria Plains Hotel, otherwise known as the Waddington Hotel (or Inn). Built in 1878, it served highway travellers lodging, food and booze for nearly 100 years. Over that time there was a surprising amount of death, including at least one murder. It's been abandoned since the 1970s and is now an interesting look into a very different time. I also explore the remains of the Waddington Recreational Reserve several minutes south. Around the overgrown oval I discover the remains of the town hall, a very tired looking cricket pitch and even the original alignment of the highway.
