Klavdy, just past Lismore airport, take a right onto Caniaba Rd..... it turns into Spring Grove Rd and comes into Casino a couple of blocks north of the Highway........its a decent little detour.
Drake pub has a decent feed and some interesting historical stuff about the region too.

That looks remarkably like the same route we took a few years ago Klav when we stayed overnight at Glen Innes, and dropped into that place for Anzac Day. Plus saw the old Arsenic mine, that was a blast.
