Geocaching Around Uranquinty And Frampton

Another day out geocaching around Uranquinty and Frampton. Called in for a beer at the Uranquinty Hotel. We headed out from home at Cootamundra at about 9.00am and didn’t get home until about 5.00pm. It was a pretty full day. All up I think we covered around 225kms.

Out and about today doing some more geocaching around Uranquinty and Frampton in NSW. Found 10 of them. We tried to find some around Wagga. Once again the ones we tried to find in Wagga were all in weird places and the logs stated they hadn’t been found many times or were suspected as missing. I don’t know what it is with the geocaches around Wagga but we’ve had no luck with them.

A Beer At The Uranquinty Hotel While Geocaching Around Uranquinty

The Uranquinty Hotel is another pub to add to our list of those that we’ve had a beer in! It’s a nice old pub and the beer was cold – can’t ask for much more than that. It was pretty quiet for a Sunday but I guess it’s a small town and it was well after lunch when we called in.

Frampton NSW – A Quick Bit Of History

Located in the Riverina region of New South Wales, Frampton NSW is a small rural locality. It’s history is tied to agriculture and transportation. First settled in the 19th century the area played a role in the expansion of farming and railway networks in southern New South Wales.

The arrival of the railway in the late 1800s was a turning point for Frampton NSW. It became an important location along the Main South railway line. The station no longer operates. However it once facilitated the transport of wool, grain and livestock, supporting the region’s economic growth.

Like many settlements in the Riverina district the community thrived on farming with sheep grazing and cropping forming the backbone of the local industry. Over time technological advances and shifts in transportation reduced the town’s prominence yet its agricultural legacy remains strong.

Today Frampton NSW is a quiet area reflecting the resilience of rural Australia. While the railway no longer defines its identity the landscape that remains tells the story of a once busy hub that contributed to the region’s progress.
