White Hart Inn heritage find 00:06:52

Transport for NSW will ensure the recently discovered site of the White Hart inn will be conserved and its historical importance recognised. Teams working on the North West Rail Link discovered the historic site of the inn at Kellyville. Mystery surrounds the building, which was built in the late 1820s and destroyed some time around the turn of the 20th century. Archaeological experts have carefully excavated the site and catalogued incredible finds, including a toothpaste canister with Queen Victoria's image on it, medicine bottles, a doll's leg and coins that are almost 200 years old.
