Reids Flat is a small historic village (population 50) in regional New South Wales located within Hilltops Council.

Location

The town is sited on the south bank of the Lachlan River, approximately {{convert|40|km}} southeast of Wyangala, in Hilltops Council, in the South West Slopes region of New South Wales, hidden in the Great Dividing Range.

It is graced by grandiorite geomorphology and sits on lay lines. There is a rich indigenous dreaming associated with the valley along with a lively bushranger history. Active bushrangers in the area included Ford and Fogg. Caves within the surrounding rocky mountains provided excellent hiding places for these outlaws - girlfriends and wives would hang white washing on the lines in the valley when the coast was clear.

Local marino sheep wool production is amongst the finest in the world, with the majority of 15 micon fleece pre-sold to the Italian fashion market. Prices received per bale frequently fetch world record prices ( references) and these wool providers have been farming in the district for over a century.

Carney : local family

Chown : farming dynasty, associated with horses and WW1 decorated veteran

Glen Berry: was the local mechanic and bus driver, a beloved community 'bush telegraph' story teller.

Cochraine:

Facilities

The village – a quiet residential area – does not have any commercial establishments within its boundaries; the nearest shop is located {{convert|22|km}} away, in the town of Bigga. It does, however, possess a public hall, a showground, and a council rubbish dump. The Reids Flat Public School was officially closed on 17 December 2014.[1]
