Geocache Description:

A short multi at the Coach and Horses Inn, Clarkefield

This magnificent bluestone building has reported sightings of several ghosts.

Ghost No. 1 is that of Irish seaman Patrick Reagan, who jumped ship in Melbourne and struck it rich around Castlemaine. He once stopped at the Clarkefield Hotel (as it was then known) and was robbed and killed. Reagan's ghost has often been seen around the hotel, running down the stairs as though fleeing assailants.

Ghost No. 2 is a Chinese miner found hanged after a fight.

But most sightings have been of ghost No. 3, a girl who, it is said, was thrown down the hotel well by her father. Many claim to have seen her, sobbing and pleading.

Don and Judy Buzmer took over the hotel in the early 1980s.
Don had heard the stories but scoffed at them.
But not for long.
Footsteps in the dead of night, glasses smashing, paintings flying about ... the Buzmers put the pub back on the market.

The Pub still operates today and is a great place to stop for a drink or a meal and you never know, you might even encounter a ghost or two! Put it in your log if you think you've seen anything.

At this waypoint, you will need to find the year that the pub was built (It’s on the sign above the door)
