  Bundarra is a very small rural settlement in the New England area. The population in 2002 is approx. 319 persons. Bundurra is located 582 km north of Sydney and 378 km south-west of Sydney on the road between Armidale (88 km to the south-east) and Inverell (44 km to the north). It is situated 700 m above sea-level. The Gwydir River passes through the town and is a good spot for fishing.
  In May 1868 the bushranger known as Thunderbolt (Fred Ward) stole two quality horses from the stables at Abington station, near Bundarra. They belonged to police inspector Brown and a trooper who were then staying at the station. In return he left his own two weakened mounts. The bushranger was noted for his ability to pick and ride a good horse. Indeed it was these qualities which enabled him to evade the law for so long and it was alleged that his being saddled, by chance, with a slower horse which led to his death (see entry on Uralla).
