Geocache Description:

Short drive on towns outskirts. Can do the GC on the old railway bridge on the way out to this one. Easy parking & easy find. Look upon me once you see the Musical welcome to the town


The name Binnaway may derive from an Aboriginal term which means peppermint tree. The first landholder in the areas was Charles Naseby who claimed 50 acres in 1869. The village of Binnaway was initially set up on his land with a plan for the town being laid out in 1876. A street in the town is named Renshaw Street after the former Premier of New South Wales Jack Renshaw who grew up and went to school in the area.A film called The Shiralee which starred Peter Finchwas filmed around Binnaway in the 1950s.Binnaway was also home to Frank Bourke's famous White Rose Orchestra and the big Piano It was a major railway town and a large wheat receival area.

 

The town has a lovely powered camp ground for travellers on the banks of the Castlereagh River. Stay a few days and visit our local traders, we really appreciate your business to keep our town thriving.
