Colebee and Nurragingy Land Grant, Heritage site in New South Wales, Australia

The Colebee and Nurragingy Land Grant spans 30 acres along Richmond Road, featuring natural landscapes and Bells Creek running through the property.

Governor Macquarie granted this land to Aboriginal guides Colebee and Nurragingy in 1819, marking the first official land grant to Indigenous individuals in Australian history.

The site represents early cross-cultural engagement between Aboriginal communities and colonial authorities, demonstrating Indigenous agricultural practices and land management.

The property, currently owned by Transport for NSW, remains largely undeveloped rural land bordered by industrial and residential developments in western Sydney.

Archaeological assessments indicate moderate potential for discovering subsurface evidence of Aboriginal habitation dating back to pre-colonial settlement periods.
