Gold Rush Pub Sold After 165 Years | Sydney News
from Sydney News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A haunted pub with a wild gold rush past is hitting the market—once lost in a card game, now back in the winner’s family for 165 years. In Nundle, near Tamworth, the Peel Inn Hotel has been run by the Schofield clan since William McIlveen’s dramatic exit after losing it all. Robert Schofield’s kids are selling to cash in on regional pub demand as he retires after 60 years behind the bar. Meanwhile, McDonald’s gets approval for a new Sydney spot in Crows Nest—a $1.35M project set to open later this year for licensee Bernard Kelly, who’s been with the brand for nearly 30 years. And in Newcastle, the historic Oak Hexham site—famous for milkshakes and family meals—is sold for $20 million to a joint venture planning factory expansion that will keep 65 jobs secure.
