Blanch's Royal Oak Inn, Heritage inn site along New England Highway in Kentucky, Australia.
The remaining flagstone and cellar indicate the former location of the inn near Uralla, where travelers stopped during their journeys through New South Wales.
The establishment gained recognition as the site of Captain Thunderbolt's final robbery in 1870, when he targeted both the Blanch family and an Italian merchant.
The inn represents the typical establishments of colonial New South Wales, serving as a gathering point for locals and travelers on the New England Highway.
Visitors can locate the archaeological remains of the inn through the New South Wales Heritage database, which provides detailed coordinates and access information.
The cellar of the former inn contains structural elements that demonstrate construction methods used in nineteenth-century Australian commercial buildings.
