About BELL

The town was named after Archibald Bell, Jr. who in 1823 and at the age of only nineteen, crossed the mountains along what was to become Bell's Line of Road. The mountains has been crossed at Katoomba a decade earlier, however, there was still no satisfactory route from Richmond at this time. Bell used the knowledge of the local Aborigines who had been crossing the mountains for tens of thousands of years.

Bell reached Mount Tomah on his first attempt but could not find a way across. On his second attempt he followed the ridge across to the present site of Bell and from there made his way down into Hartley Vale where he joined up with Cox's Road. A railway platform was opened here in 1875 with the name Mount Wilson. This was changed to Bell in 1889, in honour of Archibald Bell Jnr.
