History
In the 1850s the town was troubled with Bushrangers.[6][7][8][9]
A town was proclaimed in 1852, described at that time as 1½ square miles, within the County of Goulburn... bounded on the west by the Mullengandra Creek.
An Anglican Church was consecrated in 1876.[10] Mullengandra Post Office opened on 16 May 1888.[11]
The public school opened in 1871 and closed in 2017.[12][13]
The town's churches and pub have also closed recently.
