Explore Abermain, New South Wales, Australia, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Abermain, NSW map and move it around to re-centre it. You can change between standard map view and satellite map view by clicking the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. You can use the zoom buttons on the lower right side of the map to zoom in or out to street-level detail.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — Geoscience Australia topographic mapping and the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 sheets — plus a labelled MGA grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below. You will find live weather, local and world news further down the page.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Abermain, New South Wales, Australia. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Geoscience Australia National Base Map — seamless topographic mapping covering the mainland, Tasmania and the external territories. NATMAP 250K shows the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 map sheets, mosaicked nationwide — the printed sheets generations of Australians navigated the outback with. The search box finds any Australian town, suburb or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Abermain.
Reading the map like a paper sheet. Click Grid to overlay the Map Grid of Australia (MGA), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as an MGA grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what emergency services and search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need mobile coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load, which across much of inland Australia is most of the time.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Abermain rests in a landscape shaped by the rolling foothills that spill down from the Brokenback Range. It lies 7.4 km east of Cessnock, NSW (from Cessnock, NSW: bearing 82°T), and is situated 14.7 km south-west of Maitland. The land here is a gentle, fertile country, a patchwork of cleared paddocks and stands of native bush, where the air often carries the scent of damp earth and eucalyptus. Sunlight, when it breaks through the usual haze, has a particular softness, a diffused quality that seems to lay a gentle hand on the corrugated iron roofs and weathered fences. The streets of Abermain are quiet, punctuated by the occasional rumble of a truck or the distant bark of a dog, a pace that allows for observation, for noticing the subtle shift in colour on a gum leaf or the way the shadows lengthen across the road in the late afternoon.
This is a place whose character is deeply entwined with the earth beneath it, a heritage born from the rich seams of coal that once powered industry and shaped the lives of generations. The legacy of mining is etched into the very spirit of Abermain, a history that continues to inform its present-day economy, which now balances the echoes of its industrial past with the burgeoning opportunities in viticulture and tourism from neighbouring regions. The landscape itself, a blend of pastoral land and remnant bushland, speaks of resilience and adaptation, a quiet testament to the enduring spirit of this locality, where the rhythm of life unfolds with a steady, unhurried grace.

This page provides a street and satellite map of Abermain, New South Wales. Live weather conditions with current observations and a 7-day forecast are powered by Open-Meteo. Real-time local news and world news feeds keep the page current, while an editorially written description provides background on Abermain, in the Cessnock City Council local government area.
Detailed location data for Abermain includes the postcode (2326), telephone area code (02), and local government area (Cessnock City Council), with an ABS remoteness classification of Major Cities of Australia. These are among the most commonly searched location details for any Australian city, town or locality.
Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Australian town, suburb or landmark by name; offers Geoscience Australia topographic mapping and the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 sheets as base layers; overlays a labelled Map Grid of Australia (MGA) so the map can be read like a printed topographic sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as an MGA grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require mobile coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from Geoscape Administrative Boundaries (GDA2020) and enriched with GeoNames and Australian Bureau of Statistics data, matched by coordinate proximity — ensuring the correct Abermain is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
