undated - In the earliest days of the suburb, the Bearns Arms has been designated a safe house by the KNW and defended heavily by its members. As of late, only the remaining die hard members maintain the safe house from which they secure and monitor Neot General Hospital and the suburb's phone towers in McNeil Towers.
