Dalgety,
NSW
The historic village of Dalgety on the banks of the Snowy River is the only
town left on the Snowy River in New South Wales, after the Snowy Scheme was
built and the old towns of Jindabyne and Adaminaby were flooded.
Previously known as Buckley's Crossing, the township was surveyed in 1874. It was once a major stock crossing at a time when bullock trains were an important mode of transport. There was a punt across the river before the bridge was built in 1888.
In 1902 Dalgety was a proposed site for the nation's capital city.
Dalgety
House dates back to the 1850s and the original Coach House still stands at
the rear. Buckley's Crossing Hotel is the social hub of the town and has a
great display of old photographs.
