Hero of Waterloo

Explore the convict-built walls and secret shanghaiing tunnels, then brave a night in Australia's most haunted pub after enjoying their lamb shank bourguignon.

In their own words: “As we keep heading east and walk down the hill on our left you’ll see the Hero of Waterloo. It was built in eighteen forty three by convicts and you can still see the chisel marks in the sandstone walls today. This is the place with the legendary stories of the secret tunnels. Word is there was a trapdoor under one of the bar stools... There's a tragic story about a former landlady named Anne Kirkman... she haunts the place to this day. If you’re looking for a feed, they’ve got some serious options here. You can’t go past the lamb shank bourguignon or the slow-cooked beef wellington.”
