Courthouse Carcoar NSW.
 Nice day again. We left the van at the camp site and headed into Carcoar for a look at this very old town. We were very lucky to find a gentleman that had the keys to all the buildings to view. This was good for us as he then give us a great run down on every thing that he showed us, (better than trying to work it out for ourselves).He first showed us in the Stoke Stable Museum built in 1849 & then into the Court House built 1882, refurbished with a stimulus grant of $220,000. plus the $25,000 raised by the community.

He then took us for a look at the Performing Arts Center and upstairs to the war museum.

This photo was taken inside the St James Presbyterian church built in 1861.

After all this site seeing we needed to have a coffee. So off to the Former Stoke Hotel for morning tea before returning to the camp site.



We then drove up the hill a little to look at this sandstone church.
Fiona found time to plank a little (she did fall off) and some time to feed the birds.
