Settlers Inn Hotel in City (Ipswich)

Settlers Inn Hotel

"Originally called the Shamrock, this hotel burned to the ground in 1885. It was replaced by the Club Hotel, which was also damaged by fire in 1916 but was repaired.

The current building has an unusual central carriageway to the rear yard, typical in English coaching houses but rare in Australia. It still has its open balustraded parapet with a spiked finial.

The name was changed to Settlers Inn in the late 1990s."
