Beenleigh - Royal Hotel (3 Nov 2007)
Beenleigh

Beenleigh is a small town just to the south of Logan City on the south side of Brisbane, bisected by the main Gold Coast freeway. With the urbane development accompanying the rapid population growth in South East Queensland, Beenleigh is in danger of becoming just another suburb in the built-up belt developing there. Consequently, most of the interesting and old architecture is pretty much lost or otherwise "modernised". Thankfully, some of the old pubs did remain, and an interesting church, so these are shown below.

Beenleigh is now part of the Gold Coast Local Council area so for more information on the town and environs, visit the this site for more info.

Beenleigh - Bethesda Lutheran Church

The Bethesda Lutheran Church is quite an unusual building and caught my eye as I was driving around town.

Beenleigh - Imperial Hotel

No matter where I went I couldn't find a angle to do justice to the interesting Imperial Hotel in Beenleigh.

Beenleigh - Royal Hotel

The Royal Hotel in Beenleigh has been extensively modified but still looks like an interesting place for a drink or meal.

Beenleigh - Sundowner Hotel

The Sundowner Hotel in Beenleigh looks like it is the most original condition of the three old pubs clustered together at the end of the business district.
