Property History and Information
Barraba was established as a service town for local farmers in the mid to late 1800s on the back of grazing and the gold rush.
The area is some of Australia’s best farming land, much of which is still owned by descendants of the district’s founding families – the Manilla farm has been in the family for 90 years.
The region was once known for its wool and wheat but is now celebrated for its world-class beef production and is surrounded by some of the most picturesque and productive beef grazing country in Australia.
