A town of Wellington county, New South Wales, Australia, 248 m. by rail N.W. of Sydney. Pop. (Igor) 2 9 88. The river Macquarie is here spanned by a fine railway bridge. There are rich gold-bearing reefs in the vicinity of the town and gold dredging is a growing industry; wheat growing is the most considerable agricultural pursuit, but fruit trees and vines are cultivated with success. Stock-rearing also is extensively followed on account of the fine pasturage in the district. In the vicinity are the beautiful Wellington caves.
