The parish is on the Castlereagh River and Great Australian Basin and, specifically, over the Surat Sub-basin of the GAB. [5]

History

In 1888 Gilgandra township was proclaimed, and the first town blocks were sold in 1889 though as postal service (1867), school (1881) and court house (1884) were already established. The Council was constituted in 1906. [6] During World War I, the so-called Coo-ee recruitment march to Sydney began here.
