Upcoming Events in Gundagai

Stockinbingal is a small village located 410 km south-west of Sydney. It is an important junction for wheat transportation from the central west and freight from Western and South Australia destined for Port Botany. The village, which was proclaimed in 1885, developed with flourishing agriculture and the building of the railway, reaching its full potential in the early 1900s. The village architecture remains virtually untouched since Federation and is a fine example of the early Australian vernacular style. Ellwoods Hall, built in 1912, plays an important role within the community hosting a wide variety of events, including book launches, model train shows, a Country Bush Dance, the Twilight Markets, Stop & Mingle morning teas with guest speakers, and school functions. Our Heritage Room, open every Friday from 9 am and Sunday from 10 am, is a treasure trove of beautifully displayed photographs, maps, records, and curated historic items that make Stockinbingal unique. The Stockinbingal Cemetery, located on Grogan Road, is part of the Grassy Box Woodlands Conservation Management Network. It contains a rare and valuable remnant of grey and yellow box woodlands. An endangered bird, the Grey-crowned babbler, can be found here, plus migratory birds such as the Superb Parrot and the Dollarbird. The cemetery offers a unique opportunity to experience the rich natural heritage of the area.
