Correct, and (unfortunately for you having a shot) just as Harro has reappeared.

But yes correct on all counts, the shepherds hut.

add it to the list to go back to... i remember there was a memorial, a cemetery and a toilet we used was long drop and needed flaming out!! but thats about it, not sure if there was nothing else about and the town itself was a ghost town (eg pretty much gone!) I cant find it on google maps..
wonder if our modern tunnels will last this long.

But it wasn't built by convicts Digger. This is a common misapprehension. The story on it's construction can be found at Mann River Reserve further up the road towards Glen Innes. Or on google
