Camden

Camden sits beside the Nepean River in New South Wales’s Macarthur region, where the Cumberland Plain meets the rural districts south-west of Sydney. The town developed around land granted to pioneer wool growers John and Elizabeth Macarthur; their nearby Camden Park estate became closely associated with the development of Australia’s merino wool industry. Camden’s main street retains civic and commercial buildings from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, while the annual Camden Show continues the district’s agricultural tradition. River flats and open farmland give the centre a markedly different rhythm from metropolitan Sydney. View additional webcams nearby to better understand how Camden relates to its surroundings.
