Population

Bellbrook had a population of 339 as of the 2021 census. [1] An expansion of 21% from the 2016 census [5] population of 273.

Etymology

The town was laid out and gazetted as Bellbrook in 1892. Caroline McMaugh, wife of early settler John McMaugh, named the village. At that time, and still today, the distinctive call of bellbirds could be heard echoing through the dense scrub they inhabited along Nulla Nulla Creek. [6] [7]

In 1882, the name Bellbrook was first adopted as the official title for the original post office. [8] A postal receiving office at Bellbrook opened on 16 January 1882, became a post office on 1 January 1884, and closed on 10 April 1987. [9] The present day post office is located at Bellbrook Hotel.

Climate

Located within the same post code as Crescent Head , Kempsey, Verges Creek and other unique coastal and hinterland townships, Bellbrook enjoys a humid, sub-tropical climate with hot, humid summers and cold winters with significant rainfall. Many locals utilise fireplaces during the colder months.

History

Pre-History

Bellbrook is on the traditional lands of the Thunghutti Aboriginal people, some of whom continue to live on the local Aboriginal reserve.

Settlement

It was first settled by Europeans in the mid-1830s, and there was "very active antagonism" between the Europeans and the Thunghutti, which slowed the development of the village. [10]

A 36.4-hectare (90-acre) Aboriginal reserve was established at Bellbrook in 1885. [8] It was initially an unsupervised reserve, but was later managed by the Aboriginal Protection Board. Residents "came under intense government surveillance" from the APB and had to sign in and out. Many of the residents worked on local pastoral stations, generally poorly paid. [11]

Bellbrook Hotel

The Bellbrook Hotel overlooks the Macleay River. [12] Opening in 1913, [13] the Bellbrook Hotel is of historical significance, enjoying over one hundred years of service in addition to its notoriety as the watering hole of renowned Country Music Singer Slim Dusty. [14] In 2018, the pub was nominated for the Best Bush Pub category in the Australian Hotels Association 2018 awards for excellence. [15] In the same year, Bellbrook Hotel featured as one of twenty-five historic pubs in a travel book by the publisher of Australian Bush Pubs, titled, 'Historic Pubs, New South Wales'. [16]

General Store

The Bellbrook General Store is located in Main Street, [17] [18] with the store and post office relocating to the Bellbrook Hotel in late 2019. It was the location of the Country Women's Association for many years in addition to catering for functions, meetings and local gatherings. The General Store is situated in the middle of the village, opposite the public school and Bellbrook Memorial Park.

Bellbrook School of Arts

The Bellbrook School of Arts was built circa 1922 and is opposite the General Store, Bellbrook Memorial Park and tennis courts. [19]

Water

In 2005, the town's raw water supply was contaminated by heavy metals and arsenic from former mines in the Hillgrove area. In 2008, water was reportedly having to be trucked into the town because the supply was so contaminated. A new $700,000 water treatment plant was installed in 2009 to address the issue. [20] [21]

2019-20 Bushfires

In November 2019, Bellbrook locals were forced to evacuate as their community was engulfed by the Carrai East fire which resulted in the loss of some homes. [22] [23] The Nulla Nulla Creek home of country music legend Slim Dusty was saved. [24] Mobile phone coverage was lost in the mountain village with locals relying upon each other and the local Rural Fire Service for updates. Fires blocked the road to and from Bellbrook. Some locals stayed to prepare for the oncoming bushfire and created containment lines around their properties while other residents were forced to shelter at the local school. Locals were later able to leave under Emergency Service escort once the road was deemed safe. [25] [26]

In late November 2020, a travelling photograph exhibition titled, 'Black Summer and Beyond' [27] was hosted at the Bellbrook School of Arts in commemoration of the bushfires.

Culture

Art

Bellbrook's rich history and unique location has been the subject of many landscape artists, notably award-winning Kempsey born artist Les Graham [28] and Stephen Franks (1942-2002).

The Bellbrook community embraces its Thunghutti Aboriginal roots. In December 2018, community members attended the official unveiling of its new sculpture “Wupu Manhatinum”- translation- 'Travelling Star', which now resides in the local park. The public artwork was dedicated to the late Aboriginal elder and artist, Aunty Esther Quinlin. The sculpture is part of the Dunghutti Story Trail – the Dhanggati Wirriyn Yapang project, which celebrates the Macleay Valley Coast’s significant cultural heritage and "-mark['s] the western gateway into Dunghutti country." [29]

The growing 'Vanlife' movement [35] [36] and the subject of the 2019 film documentary 'The Meaning of Vanlife' [37] [38] held their 2016 gathering in Bellbrook NSW. The trip began with a Thunghutti Welcome to Country ceremony followed by stories and local history shared by camp-fire.
