Description

DescriptionPhotgraph of the Palais Royal Hotel, 1952. The Palais Royal was on the corner of East Street and Brisbane Street, Ipswich. The site was originally built in 1859 as the residence of George Thorn Snr, becoming the Palais Royal Hotel after his death in 1876. It was demolished in the 1970s to make way for the Ipswich Tavern and later Bendigo Bank. Henry P. M. Biltoft was the licensee between 1925 and 1939 (he was lost at sea in June and his wife, Maude, would become the official licensee in January 1941). Lowes Dry Cleaners operated from the premises.References (offline)Queensland Times, ‘And … another one bites the dust’ by Tracey Cox, 2 November 1984
