History

The first European settlement in Croobyar occurred in the late 1840s, when prominent local shipbuilder and future mayor of Ulladulla, David Warden purchased Шаблон:Convert of land and between 3-400 cattle from the estate of Alexander Macleay, the former Colonial Secretary.[3][4] Warden built a stone cottage and dairy by Croobyar Creek and later, the heritage listed Mount Airlie homestead at nearby Woodstock in 1868.[3][5] Following Warden's death, the Croobyar estate was subdivided between his four sons.[6] By 1881, the Warden family had built a school to educate children of farm workers, which became a hub for community activities. The school would eventually close during World War II, although the schoolmaster's cottage was preserved and remains today as a boutique guest house.[7]

Croobyar Farm was still operating as a commercial dairy in 2022.[8]
