Rooty Hill, Heritage site in Sydney, Australia
The registered heritage site stretches across multiple buildings and structures, including the Imperial Hotel and Watts Cottage with their Italianate architectural elements.
The area received its name in 1802 from Governor Philip Gidley King, who drew comparisons with Norfolk Island's ground conditions filled with tree roots.
The Pioneer Memorial Church, constructed in 1891 on land from Dr. Charles McKay, remains an active center for religious gatherings and community events.
Located 42 kilometers west of Sydney's business district, the site connects to surrounding areas through major roads and public transportation networks.
The Imperial Hotel, built in 1890, initially served visitors to local greyhound racing tracks and maintains its position on the State Heritage Register.
