Berrima ~ We had the pleasure of meeting Lynn of @ $Berrima ~ We had the pleasure of meeting Lynn of @berrimawalkingtours who gave us a really interesting and informative tour through the village of Berrima. Berrima is a unique and historic village, established in 1831, and is the only example of an existing and largely preserved Australian Georgian colonial town. {Source: St Paul’s Moss Vale website} One of the favourite stops on the tour was the bronze sculpture of Charlotte Atkinson, who was the first Australian author of children’s books and a big supporter of women’s education and rights 📚✊. Charlotte came to Australia from England in the 1800’s to be a governess for the Macarthur family, and met her grazier husband on the boat voyage. They married and had four children, but soon after the birth of their fourth child, he died. Charlotte, known for her adventurous spirit, challenged conventions by fighting for the right to raise her children and secure financial support after her husband’s passing. She even won custody of her children after a landmark court battle. We also learnt about the history of Berrima’s courthouse, gaol, Anglican and Catholic chapels, the design of the homes and the central market place. Back in its heyday Berrima had upwards of 13 inns, where travellers could stop for a meal, refreshments, and a place to rest themselves and their animals. The Surveyor General Inn is the oldest continuously licensed Inn in Australia, established in 1834. After our tour, we stopped for coffee and cupcakes at the gorgeous @the_cupcake_co_shop If you find yourself in The Southern Highlands, we can highly recommend a visit to Berrima. Be sure to contact Lynn about a tour @berrimawalkingtours, and allow time for coffee and cake.$
