Bloody Hell no wonder there was so many Pubs in those days, you'll need a drink just to cross the road....or is it river bed?

Chris Kelly I was interested seeing that Main Street had been renamed "Greenstone Road" because when I lived in Kumara, the road down the ZigZag was named Greenstone Road because it went to Greenstone. What odd turn of history caused the change? Because now you have a road of that name leading up towards Sandys Hill and the old gold diggings.
