In 1845 the
following advertisement appeared in the Maitland
Mercury:
'James Watson who formerly kept the
Shamrock Inn, begs leave respectfully to inform his
friends and the public that he has opened that
commodious House built by Mr. Nowland, at the Chain of Ponds half way
between Singleton and Muswellbrook and trusts by a strict attention to
the comfort of travellers and moderate charges to merit a portion of
their patronage. Splendid stabling and supply of horse provender. Chain
of Ponds, Liddell'

This was
the Lady Gipps Inn later to be re-named the Lady Mary Fitzroy (1847).
James Watson was granted a publican's license for the Lady Mary Fitzroy
