A close by historic town which dates back prior to the 1840's and still today, retains all of it's charm of yesteryears is 'Millthorpe', known as Spring Grove until 1884. Mail and parcels were continually getting lost because there were so many similarly named places on the rail line so its name was changed to Millthorpe.
A very peaceful & serene village - it is wonderful to stroll around the streets, browse the shops, galleries and buildings then have a casual lunch in one of the fine restaurants or cafes.
