    Beverley must be a very small town. I lived in WA for a few years and yet had never heard the name mentioned. Small town, but clearly the good burghers wanted their communal facilities to be very grand.

    I went back and had a look at the pub. It fits into an entire generation of stylish deco pubs.

      Beverley was settled in the 1830s and I read somewhere it has under 900 residents.
