The village is located {{convert|192|km}} north of Sydney and the nearest major centres are Singleton some {{convert|42|km}} southwest and Maitland to the south. In the {{CensusAU|2006}}, it had a population of 289.[1] HistoryThe traditional owners of the area are the Gringai clan of the Wonnarua people, a group of indigenous people of Australia.[2] The town is probably named for Gresford in Wales. LocationThere are actually two small villages with the name 'Gresford'. There is Gresford (or West Gresford) on the Singleton side and East Gresford on the Maitland side. It appears that Gresford is the original township, as it is older and the location of the school and local Anglican church. But East Gresford is much larger and has the main shopping area. It is also home to the Gresford Scorpions Soccer Club. East Gresford is close to the Barrington Tops National Park, which includes the highest peak in the Hunter Valley and is a World Heritage site. It also snows in the area each winter. {{Citation needed|date=October 2016}} In 2018 the annual Gresford Show was held in March. The highly successful Gresford Billycart Derby occurred on Easter Saturday, 31 March. The 2019 event will again be held on Easter Saturday. More information and updates on activities can also be obtained from the monthly publication of the Gresford News which is also available on-line. ClimateThe areas surrounding East Gresford have a humid subtropical climate (Cfa) with hot summers and cool drier winters, similar to the Greater Western Sydney region. {{Weather box|location = Lostock Dam |metric first = Yes |single line = Yes |Jan record high C = 43.5 |Feb record high C = 45.6 |Mar record high C = 39.8 |Apr record high C = 36.7 |May record high C = 27.8 |Jun record high C = 25.0 |Jul record high C = 26.0 |Aug record high C = 28.3 |Sep record high C = 35.5 |Oct record high C = 38.5 |Nov record high C = 43.7 |Dec record high C = 42.0 |year record high C = 45.6 |Jan high C = 29.6 |Feb high C = 28.6 |Mar high C = 26.7 |Apr high C = 23.6 |May high C = 20.1 |Jun high C = 17.0 |Jul high C = 16.6 |Aug high C = 18.5 |Sep high C = 21.8 |Oct high C = 24.7 |Nov high C = 26.7 |Dec high C = 28.9 |year high C = 23.6 |Jan low C = 17.3 |Feb low C = 17.2 |Mar low C = 15.5 |Apr low C = 12.6 |May low C = 9.9 |Jun low C = 7.7 |Jul low C = 6.4 |Aug low C = 6.8 |Sep low C = 9.3 |Oct low C = 11.8 |Nov low C = 13.9 |Dec low C = 16.1 |year low C = 12.0 |Jan record low C = 9.2 |Feb record low C = 10.2 |Mar record low C =5.6 |Apr record low C = 3.6 |May record low C = 0.7 |Jun record low C = 1.2 |Jul record low C = -1.7 |Aug record low C = -0.4 |Sep record low C = 1.0 |Oct record low C = 3.3 |Nov record low C = 6.0 |Dec record low C = 6.8 |year record low C = -1.7 |precipitation colour = green |Jan precipitation mm = 124.2 |Feb precipitation mm = 123.7 |Mar precipitation mm = 124.4 |Apr precipitation mm = 74.8 |May precipitation mm = 70.1 |Jun precipitation mm = 68.4 |Jul precipitation mm = 38.3 |Aug precipitation mm = 35.9 |Sep precipitation mm = 48.1 |Oct precipitation mm = 66.7 |Nov precipitation mm = 90.3 |Dec precipitation mm = 94.7 |year precipitation mm = 973.7 |Jan precipitation days =12.8 |Feb precipitation days = 12.4 |Mar precipitation days =13.1 |Apr precipitation days = 11.1 |May precipitation days = 11.0 |Jun precipitation days = 12.3 |Jul precipitation days = 10.2 |Aug precipitation days = 8.8 |Sep precipitation days = 9.4 |Oct precipitation days = 11.0 |Nov precipitation days = 13.0 |Dec precipitation days = 11.8 |year precipitation days = 136.9 |humidity colour=green |Jan humidity = 53 |Feb humidity = 59 |Mar humidity = 61 |Apr humidity = 55 |May humidity = 56 |Jun humidity = 61 |Jul humidity = 54 |Aug humidity = 46 |Sep humidity = 43 |Oct humidity = 50 |Nov humidity = 50 |Dec humidity = 45 |year humidity = 53 |source 1 = [3] |date= January 8 2019 }} References1. ^1 {{Census 2006 AUS|id=SSC17055|name=East Gresford (State Suburb)|accessdate=2007-07-22|quick=on}} 2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.visitdungog.com.au/areahistory.php |title=Indigenous history |work=Visit Dungog |publisher=Dungog Shire Visitor Information Centre |year=2009 |accessdate=13 May 2012}} 3. ^{{cite web| url = http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/averages/tables/cw_061288_All.shtml| publisher = Bureau of Meteorology |title = Climate statistics for Lostock Dam |accessdate = 8 January 2019}} External links
