I retire from the workforce this week and to celebrate have decided to retire my current blogs and start afresh with a single consolidated blog - My Bright Field - to record the delights of my new life adventure. If you are interested follow me over there. I will still be Sweet Wayfaring and collecting Royal Hotels. The delights I discover along the way will appear together with my gardens and towns where I live.
"To muse, to creep, to halt at will, to gaze ... such sweet wayfaring"
William Wordsworth
It's interesting to note the different popular names for landmarks - there are a lot of 'Commercial' Hotels, and have also seen a few 'Criterion' Hotels! Some of our forbears didn't have much imagination ...
ReplyDeleteHappy travels!
Love the stonework.
ReplyDeleteSUch a handsome building. How on earth did you know it had been a 'royal'?
ReplyDeleteI knew it had been a Royal because the whole town is very well signposted with historic information.
ReplyDeleteRed, it is interesting how the same names pop up time and time again. In the case of the NSW Royals I think they were stopping points for the Royal Mail.
