Local History
Virginia is a town with lots of historic charm and genuine sense of belonging. Virginia was first settled in 1848, and became well known as an Irish settlement. These early settlers – many who were escaping the Great Famine – cleared the thick bushland to plant wheat, which became a popular crop for the region.
The town’s first pub, the Wheatsheaf Hotel, was built on the site of the new V Hotel back in 1854. Many of the descendants of the original Irish settlers still live in Virginia, along with a diverse range of new residents, and the town possesses a unique close-knit sense of togetherness and community.
