Banjo Paterson came to live at West Hall,135 Queen Street, in 1903 aged 39, after his marriage to Alice Emily Walker at Tenterfield, and lived there for five years where his daughter, Grace, was born in 1904 and his son, Hugh Barton, was born in 1906. Paterson loved horses and kept a horse at West Hall, probably in stables behind the house, and rode it in Centennial Park.
