Poolamacca Station is a pastoral lease that operates as a sheep station in the outback of New South Wales.

It is situated about {{convert|50|km|mi|0}} north of Broken Hill and {{convert|174|km|mi|0}} north east of Mannahill at the eastern end of the Barrier Range adjoining Sturts Meadows.[1] The station currently occupies an area of {{convert|40000|acre|ha|0}}.[1] The abandoned township of Tarrawingee is situated within the boundaries of the station.[2]

The property was established in the 1860s with the first owners of the run being Messrs Jones and Goode. In 1867 a shepherd staged a hoax with a white quartz gold find that lead to an aborted gold rush to the area.[1] The first property in the area was Mount Gipps Station In 1865 with Corona, Mundi Mundi and Poolamacca being established shortly afterward.[2]

Sidney Kidman worked at Poolamacca during the 1870s as a boundary rider and stockman.[3]

In 1877 the property was put up for auction by the trustees of the estate of Messrs E. M. Bagot and G. Bennett. At this stage the property was approximately {{convert|900|sqmi|km2|0}} in size along with a flock of 34,906 sheep. The property comprised ten separate runs including the 64,000 acre Bijerkerno run to the 25,000 acre Torrowangee run.[4]

John Brougham acquired a half share in Poolamacca in 1889 and later secured the lease outright. Brougham remained at Poolamacca until 1915 when he moved to Adelaide.[5] In 1892 approximately 50 Aboriginal people, were moved to Poolamacca station which under the regime of the late owner, Mr J. Brougham, constituted a sanctuary for the last remaining Aboriginal inhabitants of the Barrier Ranges and adjacent areas.[2]

The lease was later split into two properties: Poolamacca and Wilangee in the 1920s.[3]

Moss Smith sold the property in 1927 to the Pastoral company of Adelaide following the death of his daughter whose body was found buried in a warren in Poolamacca late the year before after she had gone missing for four months.[6]

In 2002 the property was acquired by the Indigenous Land Corporation with the title holders being the Wilyakali Aboriginal Corporation when the property occupied an area of {{convert|507|km2|sqmi|0}}.[7]
