Nowendoc, New South Wales

Nowendoc is a parish and village on the Northern Tablelands, New South Wales, Australia.

In 1836 William Telfer marked a tree line from Gloucester through Giro on the Barnard River, over Hungry Hill to Nowendoc and on to Ogunbil via Whites Sugarloaf.

The Australian Agricultural Company (AACo) set up stations and resting places for their travelling sheep along this route to be known as the ‘Peel Line’.

Thomas Laurie discovered alluvial gold there in 1872 and by 1873 there were about 100 people camping at Township Spur.

In late March 2012 Naden was captured by NSW Police about 30 km west of Gloucester.
