DENMAN

Population: 1509; 225km N of Sydney; 24km W of Muswellbrook.

Coal production and wineries have to some extent overshadowed dairying, which was formerly a mainstay of this district. Set against a line of hills on the fringe of the Hunter Valley, this small town is becoming a wine producer, supplementing its reputation for its horse and cattle studs. Verandahs reach out over the delightful main street. A cottage built by Commander William Ogilvie soon after he arrived in the Hunter in 1823 has been classified by the National Trust, and Baerami and Pickering are both historic homesteads. St Matthew’s Church, commissioned by the Whites, a family of settlers, is notable for its large roof.
