The Warren Water Tower Art in NSW was completed in November 2021

The mural is a Sam Brooks concept design and was painted by Bastian Allfrey.


The idea behind the mural is to represent the sports that are available in the new Carter Oval Youth Sports Precinct. The sports being featured are Cricket, Soccer, Swimming and Skateboarding. The sports facility is currently in the progress of being constructed.


Things to see


There is something charmingly old world about the central area of Warren. While there are not a lot of genuinely old buildings (there was a major fire in 1899) the town has an interesting, early 20th century feel to it which is created by some of the buildings in Dubbo Street, Burton Street and Lawson Street.


 Prominent buildings include the Club House Hotel (1901) and Royal Hotel (1900) which stand opposite each other in Dubbo Street. 


The Red River Gum Walk Begins near Burton Street in Macquarie Park. The Walk Trail guides you around the riverbank to a river red gun tree. When walking further down the river stream you will also find where stock wagons used to cross onto a gravel bar when the river water down stream was low. This process was used until the first bridge in Warren was built in 1875.
