Royal Australian Historical Society

The Royal Australian Historical Society (RAHS), Australia's oldest historical organisation founded in Sydney in 1901, exists to encourage the study of and interest in Australian history.

Woodford Academy

The Woodford Academy, a National Trust property at Woodford, is the oldest surviving group of buildings in the Blue Mountains and one of the largest nineteenth century inn complexes in Australia. Starting as an inn in 1834, the buildings have been adapted and repurposed as a gentleman's country retreat, tourist guesthouse, school, and home, ensuring their survival and the preservation of a multilayered history.
