BACK TO HARTLEY OFFERS FRESH LOOK AT HISTORY

Visitors to country NSW’s Back to Hartley family fair are being encouraged to explore the wider region at the annual event. Visitors will be entertained with live music by Lithgow Folk Club; take a trike or pony ride; have a close encounter with a furry friend at the petting zoo; make a fire poker with metal artist Ron Fitzpatrick at Talisman Gallery; and hit a bullseye at the archery.

Hartley Historic Site manager Steve Ring said, “If you’re coming from Sydney, travel up the Great Western Highway and see the Blue Mountains, spend the day with us at Back to Hartley, then drive into Lithgow and head home via the Bells Line of Road through the Hawkesbury to experience the World Heritage Area from a very different perspective.’’

Back to Hartley will be held at Hartley Historic Site, Hartley, from 9am to 4pm Sunday, October 27.

Cost: Entry is only $5 per vehicle. All monies raised at entry will be supporting “Paxton – MPS Journey”.
