Westonia
Just off Route 94, the small town of Westonia 310km cast of Perth gained its name from Alfred David Weston, a sparetime prospector who stumbled across gold in 1910 while on his way to the Goldfields.
Weston’s discovery sparked a rush of prospectors, and the ruins of just one of the many gold mines, the Edna-May can be seen 1km outside the town.
The historic Edna-May Tavern is Westonia evokes the simple architectural charm of an earlier age.
Sandford Rocks, one of the many granite outcrops throughout The Golden Way, is a popular picnic stop just east of Westonia.
