Collector is a small town off the Federal Highway between Canberra and Goulburn.
This is a charming little place, and well worth a visit if you are in the area. So come on by and collect a cache!
The area was first settled by Europeans in 1829 when T.A. Murray was granted an area of land in the area in 1829. He built a 12 room house on the land in 1837 and in 1848 a post office opened at Collector. The town reportedly is named after the Aboriginal name for the region colegadar. The Bushranger Hotel in Collector was the site of a shooting of a Constable Samuel Nelson on 26 Jan 1865, by John Dunn, a member of Ben Halls gang. The Hotel is open 7 days a week, and well worth a visit. Check the attached photos for a couple of Collector’s highlights!
