Narellan Heritage Walking Tour

In 2010, local photographers Kylie and Peter Lyons put together a walking tour of the Narellan area.

The Lyons operated The Old St Thomas Chapel as a venue for weddings, christenings and other family events.

Narellan was one of the original five villages that pre-date the foundation of the township of Camden in 1840 in The Cowpastures.

The Narellan Heritage Walking Tour is an interesting and informative way to see and learn about the history and heritage of this Cowpastures village.
