About Bannister (NSW)
Bannister is a small rural locality on the Southern Tablelands of New South Wales, in Upper Lachlan Shire about 20 kilometres south of Crookwell and 90 kilometres north-east of Canberra. It was named after Saxe Bannister, the first Attorney-General of New South Wales, and had a state school from 1878 to 1968. Sheep and cattle grazing on undulating tablelands remains the main activity.
