The town developed in early 19th century when it became one of four military posts along the road between north and south Tasmania. Buildings were constructed by convict settlers. Today, many of the sandstone structures have been turned into cafe's and restaurants. Other activities include a trip to Lake Dulverton and wildlife sanctuary.
