Old Bonalbo

Old Bonalbo is a rural village located 770 km north of Sydney, near Haystack Mountain in the Northern Rivers region of New South Wales, Australia.

[3] The traditional owners of the district surrounding Bonalbo are the Gidhabal people of the Bundjalung nation.

The Bonalbo village later developed on a part of McIntyre's holding that fronted onto Peacock Creek.

However, the depression of the 1890s drove a number of selectors away, including McIntyre, who sold his land to Paddy McNamee.

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