Information

Jerilderie, which means Reedy Place, is the gateway to the Kidman Way. Back in 1879, the town was visited by Ned Kelly and his gang, where they held up the local bank - taking some thirty people hostage. They fled with 2,140 pounds before Kelly and his gang walked to the Telegraph Office and cut down the telegraph poles thus isolating the town for two days. These days, history can be revisited with a tour of the Ned Kelly Post Office, and ‘The Willows’ museum. The town is famous for producing wool, rice, wheat, canola, and fresh produce, The Jerilderie Shire produces 24% of the national tomato crop using irrigation farming.
