Stokers Siding

When the railway was constructed in 1894, Stokers Siding was known as part of Dunbible Creek. In 1903 it was renamed Stokers Siding after local landholder Joseph Stokers.

The once predominant farmland has evolved and Stokers Siding is now home to over 600 people and boasts a thriving arts community.

Stokers village has a number of popular attractions including the Community Printmakers Murwillumbah. Housed in the historic Stokers Siding Pottery Buidling, the community organisation is a working print studio with art gallery. The General Store/Post Office with a verandah tearoom is located in the old railway station.

The village also has a vibrant public school and is known to host regular events at the community hall known as the Stokers Siding Dunbible Memorial Hall.
