Wards River

Template:Geobox

Wards River, a mostly perennial river of the Mid-Coast Council^[1] system, is located in the Mid North Coast and Upper Hunter regions of New South Wales, Australia.

Course and features

Wards River rises within Kyle Range of the Great Dividing Range, near Waukivory, south southeast of Gloucester, and flows generally west and south, joined by one minor tributary, before reaching its confluence with Mammy Johnsons River at the locale of Johnsons Creek, north of Stroud. The river descends 334 metres (1,096 ft) over its 31 kilometres (19 mi) course.^[2]

First surveyed by European explorers during the 1820s, the river was named in honour of William Ward, a founding director of Australian Agricultural Company.^[3]
