Newbridge General Store first opened in 1855.
In 1905, the store, post office and Tarnagulla Inn were destroyed by fire, but the store reopened six months later after the district’s original cheese factory was dismantled and relocated to the site.
“The store itself really focuses on food and drink and has done for many years – quality food at very reasonable prices,” Mark said.
