Dubbo Regional Council, in collaboration with the Wellington Local Lands Council and local Aboriginal Elders recently celebrated the unveiling of two information signs in the town. The two signs, which were revealed by Dubbo Regional Council's (Wellington Branch) Aboriginal Liaison Officer Mary Henderson and local Elder Uncle Nelson, tell the story of the Wirrum Wirrum people of the Binjang Clan within the Wiradjuri Nation, and are located at the culturally significant junction of the Macquarie and Bell Rivers.
