It lies 172.8 km east of Wodonga, VIC (from Wodonga, VIC: bearing 94°T), and is situated 27.8 km west of Cooma. The earth here is a rich, ochre-red, a colour that deepens after rain, clinging to the boots of those who walk its paths. Sparse stands of hardy eucalypts dot the slopes, their silver-green leaves rustling in the constant, gentle breeze that carries the scent of dry grass and distant sheep. It’s a place where the light has a particular quality, especially in the late afternoon, when it slants long and golden, painting the contours of the hills with a softened, almost melancholic hue.
The history of Middlingbank is etched into the very bones of the land, a story of hardy settlers who came seeking fortune in the rich pastures and, in earlier times, the whispers of gold. The local economy still leans heavily on the enduring strength of sheep and cattle grazing, the wool and meat finding their way to markets far beyond the horizon. You can still see the weathered corrugated iron roofs of old shearing sheds, silent witnesses to generations of hard work, and the occasional glint of quartz in a dry creek bed might still stir a memory of prospectors past. It’s a place where life moves at its own unhurried pace, dictated by the seasons and the needs of the land, a quiet resilience defining the character of Middlingbank.
