About Stanley (Vic.)

Stanley is a small town about nine kilometres from Beechworth in north-east Victoria, noted for its apple and nut farms. Originally known as Snake Gully and Nine Mile Creek, the town grew on the goldfields of the 1850s, where sluicing operations and a strong Scottish mining community left diggings that are still visible around the district. Its post office, opened in 1857, closed in 2010.
