A visit to Wingham on a very bright, sunny day.
Located on the Manning River, in New South Wales, Australia,
Wingham is a charming rural service centre which has remained largely unchanged by the tourism which has dramatically altered the townships along the coast. Wingham is the oldest town in the Manning Valley. Like many towns away from the coast it was first settled by cedar cutters and, after the cedar ran out, the surrounding countryside was settled by dairy farmers and beef cattle breeders.
It was named after the village of Wingham, near Canterbury in Kent, England.
Central Park
It is unusual for Australian towns to be built around a Central Park but Wingham is a notable exception. Central Park sits in the centre of the town, has a number of unique attractions and is surrounded by interesting and attractive historic buildings.
The 1884 Post Office is next to the School of Arts (1907), 1884 Post Office, then the courthouse (1938), which now houses the community centre, and the police station (1909). Adjacent to these buildings, opposite the Central Park, is the Catholic Church (1953) and at the corner of Farquhar and Bent Streets is the Manning Valley Historical Museum in a large building that started life as a general store in 1867. The building has been classified by the National Trust.
