Write a reviewThe first official centre of the Shire of Yilgarn was just a police station and wardens court when gold was discovered in 1887. It is located 46 kilometres north of Southern Cross and 12 kilometres north-west of Bullfinch. The first gold mining lease in the Eastern Goldfields was taken out by W T Loton and J H Monger for the Kathleen mine in 1888. At one time it was the small settlement of Knutsford, home of the Wayside Nugget Hotel. It is well worth the journey to the area to see old mine shafts, a stone cottage and a plaque to commemorate our early pioneers.
