The place demonstrates associations with early travel in the district as a staing post and Inn.
At the site of the Wayside Inn, Beejenup, little is left to suggest there was an inn here. James Bridge's grave is in the corner of the block, a pile of stones and some introduced trees.
The Wayside Inn, or staging post was for travelling public's convenience. Horses were rested and fed, a bed required for the night. Mr RR Burridge ran the Inn, previously the land had belonged to James Bridges, whose grave is nearby. Bridges wife may also be buried here. The property was sold to the Murray brothers who did not continue th service, but ran a merino sheep stud.
