There is a slight complexity about Gresford. It is actually two towns. Gresford and East Gresford are two small settlements separated by two kilometres. They are both small rural settlements in the Upper Hunter and their main attraction is their access, via Maitland, to the southern reaches of the Barrington Tops National Park.
