I am interested in the route taken by coaches between Castlemaine and Ballarat and the stops along the way.
I believe they came through Guildford, down Yandoit – Guildford Rd (Limestone Rd) and stopped for a change of horses at Yandoit before travelling on to Ballarat.
From a search of the internet (http://www.niederweisel.com/hauserm41.html) I have found that Georg Fleischer whose home was in Camp St Yandoit, extended his home to provide lodgings for travellers and Cobb & Co horses, in the 1860s.
Is Camp St now either High Street or Yandoit Creek Rd or some other location within Yandoit?
Did the coaches leave Yandoit via continuation of High St or did they go up Yandoit Creek Rd, possibly both over time
Would appreciate any information or guidance towards other information
regards
Mal
