About Turill

Turill is a small historic rural locality in the Mid-Western Regional Council area of New South Wales, situated on the Central Tablelands approximately 45 kilometres north of Mudgee along the Ulan Road corridor. The locality is one of the largest by area in the region, covering over 407 square kilometres of farming and bushland, and had a population of around 100 residents at the 2021 Census. Turill sits at around 460 metres elevation amid the rolling tablelands and eucalypt-covered hills characteristic of this part of inland New South Wales.

Turill has a small but close-knit community anchored by the Turill Community Centre, housed in a historic former school building that has served the locality since the 1880s. The surrounding land is primarily used for grazing on native vegetation and broad-acre farming, and residents rely on Mudgee — approximately 45 kilometres to the south — for supermarkets, schools, medical services, and the wider amenities of a thriving regional town. The locality suits those drawn to a genuinely remote rural lifestyle, surrounded by Central Tablelands scenery and within striking distance of Mudgee's popular food and wine scene.

Turill falls under postcode 2850 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Upper Hunter electorate.
