Hill End Historic Site, Heritage site in Hill End, Australia

Hill End Historic Site spans 130 hectares of preserved colonial buildings, mining infrastructure, and archaeological remains from the Australian gold rush period.

The settlement reached its pinnacle in 1872 as New South Wales largest inland town, following the discovery of the massive Beyers-Holtermann gold specimen.

The National Parks and Wildlife Service maintains numerous period structures including Valentine's Mine, Bennett House, and the District Hospital within the historic precinct.

Visitors can explore the site through self-guided tours, stay in heritage accommodations, or camp at designated grounds with modern facilities.

The Quartz Roasting Pits Complex, located 10 kilometers north, contains preserved kilns and mining structures used in nineteenth-century gold processing methods.
