    Hardware, grocery, and wine store of Richard and Mary Angove in Mayne Street, between the Bank of New South Wales and the Newmarket Sale Yards. The small room under the verandah on the eastern end was where Mrs Angove conducted Gulgong's first Post Office. In February 1871 she gave the job of Postmistress away and Robert Robinson took over as Postmaster. In December 1872 the store was turned into Angove's Hotel. In July 1875 Richard Angove died and his wife Mary took over as licensee. The Hotel site remained in her name at least until 1880.-- Information supplied by Baldwin & Davis, Research Gulgong (July 2006)
