WHO IS FAIRLEY?

Fairley is named after William Fairley, a school teacher who taught in Murrumbateman from 1902-1909. William Fairley was responsible for planting the gardens and many trees around the school grounds. He inspired his students and taught them to nurture the environment they lived in. The former Murrumbateman School is adjacent to Fairley and is a place of historical importance for the community.

 

Fairley is situated on an old cattle and sheep farm previously known as Murrumbateman Station, which over time became Hawthorn Station. Hawthorn was once home to the local blacksmith shop, inn, store and worker homes, and was regarded as the centre of life until 1876, when the current village was built.
