About Mulgrave

Mulgrave is a small semi-rural locality in the City of Hawkesbury local government area, situated approximately 60 kilometres north-west of Sydney's CBD and just south of Windsor along the Richmond railway line. The locality holds historical significance as the district of 'Mulgrave Place', named by Lieutenant Governor Francis Grose when the first settlers arrived in the 1790s, making it one of the earliest settled areas in the Hawkesbury region. With a 2021 Census population of 78 residents and an area of around 4 square kilometres, it retains a quiet, semi-rural character despite its proximity to the Greater Sydney metropolitan area.

Mulgrave's most notable feature is its railway station on the T1 Richmond line, providing a direct train service to Sydney's Central Station approximately 53 kilometres away — a journey of around one hour. The locality is surrounded by the picturesque Hawkesbury River floodplains, with opportunities for fishing, boating, and riverside recreation. Windsor and Richmond, just a few kilometres away, provide access to schools, supermarkets, medical centres, and the broader retail and community services of the Greater Windsor region.

Mulgrave falls under postcode 2756 and is governed by the Hawkesbury Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Macquarie, while state elections fall under the Hornsby electorate.
