Hunter’s stories a river of gold

From the Maitland Mercury report:
Maitland historian Dr Janis Wilton will explore this issue in a series of oral history workshops, held in conjunction with the 1233 ABC Newcastle’s River Stories project.

“It’s all about living with the river and appreciating it and that’s fascinating,” Dr Wilton said. “So I’d really like us to try and give the river back its history. There’s a story that belongs to the river.”
