Overview

Nestled 610 km north‑west of Sydney and just north of Nyngan, Girilambone is a tiny western‑New‑South Wales village with a 2021 Census population of 86. The settlement grew around copper mining in the late 1800s and still retains the grid of historic streets – Sydney (Mitchell) Road, Railway Road and remnants of the original private town – giving the housing stock a blend of modest heritage homes and newer rural dwellings on larger blocks.

Life in Girilambone is quiet and self‑reliant. While the local police station closed in 1975 and the railway station ceased operations in 1986, the Main Western rail line runs alongside the village and the Mitchell Highway passes close by, providing road access to surrounding towns. Community facilities include two historic cemeteries, a former Union Church still standing, and the restored railway‑station building, earmarked as a visitor centre and Indigenous art gallery. The village’s modest size and open landscape appeal to those seeking a relaxed, country lifestyle with a touch of mining heritage.
