Nana Glen, Rural administrative division in Coffs Harbour City Council, Australia
Nana Glen is a rural administrative division in Coffs Harbour City Council, located approximately 25 kilometers northwest of Coffs Harbour. The settlement sits at the intersection of Orara Way and the road to Lower Bucca.
The village name originates from the Aboriginal word Ngarla, which means two-tailed lizard and reflects the convergence of Orara River and Bucca Creek. This geographical connection has shaped the area's local identity.
The community center offers facilities including a preschool, primary school, swimming pool, cricket ground, and tennis courts that serve the local population. These amenities form the social backbone of the settlement and provide gathering spaces for residents.
Orara Way functions as the main thoroughfare through the settlement, offering an alternative route between Grafton and Coffs Harbour. Visitors should note that this road primarily serves local traffic and connects several communities.
The Sports, Recreation and Equestrian Centre was acquired by the community in 1930 and expanded into a substantial facility through sustained government support. The venue demonstrates how local initiatives can grow with public backing to serve the community.
