About TAYLORS ARM

Taylors Arm is a small town in Nambucca Shire in New South Wales, Australia. It is famous for being the site of the ''Pub With No Beer'' which was immortalised in song by Australian country singer Slim Dusty.

When its' main industries of cedar felling and dairying were at their peak, the small village of Taylors Arm thrived. A boarding house was built around 1890, followed by the pub five years later. Other stores where built including a bakery, butchery, grocery store. At the time, there were apparently 7 schools from Thumb Creek to Macksville. A Medlow Primary School (approx 30 students), The Rusty Bell general store/take away and the pub.

It was Gordon Parson (Australian country music singer) who wrote the song ''The Pub With No Beer''. When he was working as a cedar getter at Sheet 'o' bark Road in the 1940's, he went down to the pub on a very hot day (the only pub within 30 or so kilometres). When he ordered a beer, the bar person told them they had run out. The locals had drunk the whole monthly quota (War time quota), before the month was out. Gordon Parsons then passed on the song to Slim Dusty who needed a song for a B side of his record ''Saddle Boy''.

Taylors Arm and the surrounding area is a very beautiful part of the Mid North Coast. Undulating landscape, State Forrest, National Parks, Thumb Creek and Taylors Arm River which has some very inviting water holes during the hot summer months. On entry into the quiet village, an avenue of Palonia trees is set in the foreground, with blue mountains in the background.

Camping is available on the Reserve for a small fee. There are tennis courts, a cricket pitch and BBQ facilities. The Rusty Bell store which is open 7 days a week from 7am-5pm, is owned by a third generation resident of Taylors Arm. There is no coverage for mobile phones in Taylors Arm.

The main industry today is beef cattle, dairy cattle, organic crops, cedar wood works, lemon myrtle, and smaller cottage industries.
