Bonalbo, a rural village in the Northern Rivers region of New South Wales, Australia, is located 815 kilometres (506 mi) north of Sydney and it is 66 kilometres (41 mi) the regional centre of Kyogle and it sits within the Kyogle Council local government area.

[citation needed] Bonalbo township later developed on a part of McIntyre's holding which fronted on to Peacock Creek.

New selectors appeared in the 1900s when McNamee proved the land was arable and when sawmills opened up west of the range.

By 1910 there were about 100 selectors in the area living on densely timbered land and with no roads to facilitate access to the wider world.

[citation needed] In the 1920s, a railway branch line was intended to connect Casino with Bonalbo[6] but construction was abandoned due to the advent of the Second World War.

It also pays tribute to the role played by working dogs in rural life – both as workers and mates.
