History
The area was first inhabited by the Gundungurra people,[2] [3] [4] and by the mid 1840s the NSW colonial government had granted numerous land grants in area, beginning white settlement. A Public School was established in 1869. The area is today predominantly used for agriculture though it lies in the Sydney-Canberra transit corridor.
