Hello Kathy. Lithgow apparently has an average minimum temperature of -2.7 degrees centigrade. This particular rose ideally would like it warmer, so any overhead protection you can give it would be good. What about under the eave on the north side of the house, or on the north side of a sheltering shrub? 'Josephine Bruce' was said to be a low and spreading HT.
