From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lismore is a sub-tropical city and local government area in New South Wales, Australia. It is a major regional centre in the Northern Rivers region of the state. Lismore is located on the Bruxner Highway and the Wilson River, which is a tributary of the Richmond River. The State capital Sydney is 860km south by road. Brisbane, the State capital of Queensland is within a 2.5 hours drive to the north. Lismore central business district is located within 30 minutes drive from the eastern coast, and within 45 minutes of Byron Bay. The coastal town of Ballina is nearby. There are a number of rainforests in the area, remnants of what was once known as the Big Scrub. These are preserved today, with a small remnant known as Boatharbour Reserve just east of town on the Bangalow road. The nearest national park is Nightcap National Park. The city of Lismore resides in the Aboriginal Bundjalung Nation. Evidence indicates the Bundjalung people arrived from the north of Australia around 8,000 years ago. European History of Lismore begins in c.1843. A pastoral run covering an area of 93 km² was taken up by Captain Dumaresq at this time covering the Lismore area. The run was stocked with sheep from the New England area. Ward Stephens took up the run in the same year, but the sub-tropical climate was unsuited to sheep grazing, so the run was eventually abandoned. In January 1845, William & Jane Wilson took over the run. Jane Wilson was responsible for naming it after Lismore, Scotland
