Brayton is a locality in the Southern Tablelands of New South Wales, Australia, in the Upper Lachlan Shire.

[1] Brayton was formerly known as Longreach, the name of a property granted to Peter Stuckey in the mid-1820s.

The house he built with convict labour is made of sandstone from the area.

This includes periods when it was closed or operated as a "half-time" school.
