Picton Suburb Overview

Picton is a small town in the Macarthur Region of New South Wales, Australia, in the Wollondilly Shire. The town is located 80 kilometres South-west of Sydney, close to Camden and Campbelltown. It is also the administrative centre of Wollondilly Shire.

Picton was first explored by Europeans in 1798 and remained beyond the limits of legal settlement until 1821. Following the discovery of good land in the interior and the settlement of Bong Bong and the Goulburn areas, Governor Macquarie authorised the building of the new Great South Road between Sydney and the Southern Highlands in 1819. This opened up the Picton area to settlers, including Henry Colden Antill, who established a 2,000-acre property in 1822.

Picton developed when a new line of the Great South Road was cut over the Razorback Range from Camden, and especially after the railway arrived in 1863. Picton is the only town in the Southern Hemisphere where you can pass through it twice when travelling by train. It was established as Stonequarry in 1841 and was renamed Picton in 1845. It remained a stopping point on the Great South Road, later renamed the Hume Highway, until it was bypassed in the 1970s.

Bushfires destroyed several homes in the Nangarin Estate located on the western outskirts of Picton, from a fire front originating from Lakesland in September 2006.

Picton is home to many historic buildings, including two types of bridges not found easily anymore elsewhere in the state – Victoria Bridge a timber trestle bridge that crosses Stonequarry Creek, opened in 1897, and the ‘Picton Railway Viaduct’ a stone viaduct opened in 1863 to also cross Stonequarry Creek.

The viaduct is still in use by the railways. Ghost tours are conducted in some of the historic buildings and inside the disused railway tunnel on Redbank Range, where residents and visitors claim to have experienced paranormal activity. The abandoned tunnel was used to store mustard gas spray tanks during World War II .

The George IV Inn, reputedly constructed in 1839, is considered to be one of the oldest hotel buildings in Australia. The cellar contains remnants of convict shackles as prisoners being transported from Sydney to Berrima prison would often be held in Picton overnight. The barn behind the hotel may date back to 1810 and is possibly the oldest building in Picton – it is used for functions such as birthday and engagement parties. The hotel is also the location of Scharer’s Little Brewery, one of the first microbreweries in Australia and winner of numerous awards for its Burragorang Bock and Scharer’s Lager beers.

Picton railway station is on the Southern Highlands line with a relatively infrequent service with trains running every 30m

Picton also has both senior and junior rugby league and soccer teams.

Picton is home to Australia’s premier Skydiving centre Sydney Skydivers. Australia’s largest turbine Drop Zone with over 40 years experience and over 1.5 Million skydives to date.
