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.

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 Oxley Vale.
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.

Oxley Vale unfolds across a gently rolling landscape, where the pale Australian sun, particularly in the late afternoon, casts long, elegant shadows from the scattered gums and ironbarks. It lies 5.7 km north-west of Tamworth, NSW (from Tamworth, NSW: bearing 319°T), and is situated 6.8 km north-north-west of South Tamworth. The air, carrying the dry scent of eucalyptus and the faint, sweet perfume of ripening crops, hangs warm and still, broken only by the distant bleating of sheep or the low rumble of a passing ute. Here, the land breathes with a quiet resilience, its ochre soils giving way to patches of hardy native grasses and the occasional splash of colour from a wild hibiscus blooming stubbornly by the roadside. The character of Oxley Vale is etched in the weathered facades of older buildings and the open, unhurried demeanour of its people, a place where the horizon feels vast and attainable.
The history of Oxley Vale is deeply entwined with the agricultural heartbeat of the region, a fertile crescent shaped by the patient industry of generations who coaxed sustenance from this rich, alluvial soil. Once a vital hub for the surrounding pastoral and cropping endeavours, the local economy still draws its strength from the land, with sheep and cattle grazing on expansive paddocks and cereal crops stretching towards the sky. Echoes of earlier times can be felt in the sturdy, functional architecture of the older farmhouses and the enduring spirit of self-reliance that defines the community. Oxley Vale retains a distinctive charm, a sense of continuity that flows as steadily as the nearby Peel River, a vital artery that nourishes both the earth and the life that flourishes upon it.

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 Oxley Vale is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
