Leinster - Agnew traveler facilities confirmation

Agree with Ian. We also were in Leinster in July 2015. Caravan park is quite good, self serve servo is interesting but this type is becoming more frequent in outback towns. Supermarket is very good. Certainly Leinster is not what it used to be but we enjoyed our overnight stay.

Sorry mate, but you are no where near the mark. I live in Leinster. The town has pretty much filled back up in the last 12 months. The camp is overflowing. I work at Agnew Gold Mine which has a pretty good future and is based in the Leinster camp. There is also folk in town from the Romelius run Vivien mine near Agnew. There is a supermarket, op shop, tavern, mechanical workshop and a few other things in town that are doing quite well. The Agnew Pub is closed and has been for a while

Well, I did say there was a few local successful gold miners keeping Leinster going - and I'll still wager the population is only around a third of its population peak of 700.
It is good to hear that the town is still kicking, though, in this era of minings constant major closures, layoffs, and extreme cost-cutting.

Re the Agnew pub, I was sure it was still going when I went through last year.
If it is actually shut, you'd better notify the Leonora Shire about updating their website (who still list the pub as being refurbished and offering all the facilities) - Yahoo News (who state it's still open in a Jan 2016 article) - and at least three dozen other sites and articles that all speak of the Agnew Hotel as a going concern in 2016.

The company I work for own it now. Not sure what their plan is with it. Just sits there gathering dust and seems to be a beacon for thieves. Kinda sad really.

Can you still get a feed at the miners mess, been to them before and they are good :)

many thanks, definately stopping by come August sometime.

Yeah you can still get a feed at the mess, though it's not as cheap as it was a couple of years ago.
