Welcome to Tottenham, population 320 and district of approximately 1000, located in Central West of NSW. The village of Tottenham was established as a result of the discovery of copper in the early 1900's. The town now depends on a large diverse Agricultural Industry for its economic sustainability.
The town is very proud of its appearance with beautiful streets and gardens. The public and sporting facilities are also a feature. The racecourse is recognised as an outstanding venue with beautiful lawns and gardens and immaculate buildings. The local swimming pool, preschool, memorial park, tennis courts, bowling club, and golf club are all outstanding facilities.
For Bird Watchers the bird life around Tottenham is prolific. Over 160 species of birds have been recorded including Red Winged Parrot, Painted Honeyeater, and Black Falcon. The many small State Forest areas around the town have great natural habitat for enjoying this activity.

Tottenham has a unique feature, being the closest village to the geographical centre of NSW. The centre of NSW Cairn, which was constructed using SLAG from old Mount Royal and the Bogan River Copper Mines, is located 42kms West of town.
