  Joseph Collits, son of Pierce and Mary Collits (who built the Golden Fleece Inn, later Collits Inn, Hartley Vale), had been living at Billesdene Grange since 1838 when the local Court of Petty Sessions, Police station and lock-up was transferred to Hartley Courthouse. In 1840 he received the lease on a grant of 80 ha on Bathurst Road on condition that he build a new house there. His inn was built about 1845 and licensed in 1846 as the Rose Inn. Edward Field's Inn was no longer used as an inn about the time the railway reached Lithgow in 1874. The inn later became a house named Ambermere
