About
The Bingara Newsagency was established in1936 when Harold Batterham started the business. Rod King became only the third owner when he purchased it in 1988 and he has added an online presence to the main-street shop.
It is located in the historic gold-mining town of Bingara (NSW). A small town where everyone knows everyone else and success is based on trust and a great range products, including history books.
Incidentally, Rod lives and raises Angus cattle on land his great grandfather settled on in the 1880s - 10 years after diamonds had been discovered on it. He has history in his DNA.
From local “Bingara” books, published by Rod and others, to Australian history and biographies – our selection offers something for everyone plus a guarantee of money back if anyone is unhappy. That is how we do business.
But we are much more than a book shop, our products range from N.R.L. shirts, to stationery, gifts and other diverse products. We would love you have a look and if what you require is not listed – we will get it. Just ask.
