Hillgrove is located 32 km east of Armidale and 542 km north of Sydney via the Newcastle Freeway and New England Highway. It is 6 km south of the Grafton Road which runs from Armidale to Dorrigo and is 1000 m above sea level.
What happens to a mining town when the mines close down? In the case of Hillgrove, which at its height had a population of 3,500, the buildings were sold and transported to other towns in the district where they were needed. In theory Hillgrove is an old gold and antimony mining town on the edge of Hillgrove Gorge in the Northern Tablelands.
In practice it is a town of a few people and a few buildings so it is not a ghost town but rather a town which has contracted from a population of thousands to less than one hundred. When gold mining closed down in 1921 nearly all the buildings were dismantled and moved to Armidale and other centres.
