Information

Camden is a historic town, the seat of the Macarthur region, named after John Macarthur who founded Australia's wool industry in the area in the beginning of the 19th century.

Not so long ago Camden was a quaint rural village but in more recent times (since 2000) has begun to be enveloped by the sprawling Sydney metropolis.

There is so much history it is impossible to do it justice here. Here are a couple of links instead:
