About Ardglen
Ardglen is a small rural locality in the Liverpool Plains and Upper Hunter region of New South Wales, situated approximately 30 kilometres north of Quirindi within the Liverpool Plains Shire. Covering around 72 square kilometres of mixed farming and grazing country, it had a 2021 Census population of approximately 50 residents. The locality sits within the transitional zone between the Liverpool Plains to the west and the Liverpool Range hills, where black soil cropping country gives way to the uplands.
Quirindi is the nearest service town, serving as the commercial hub of the Liverpool Plains with shops, schools, healthcare, and community services for the surrounding agricultural district. The Liverpool Plains are one of Australia's most fertile agricultural regions, known for their deep black soils and productive cotton, wheat, and livestock farming. Ardglen suits those connected to the rich farming heritage of the Liverpool Plains and Upper Hunter, with Quirindi's regional services a short drive away.
Ardglen falls under postcode 2338 and is governed by the Liverpool Plains Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Lyne, while state elections fall under the Upper Hunter electorate.
