Wilberforce is a small town in New South Wales, Australia, in the City of Hawkesbury. It is just beyond the outer suburbs of north-west Sydney and lies on the western bank of the Hawkesbury River. Wilberforce is one of the original settlements established as townships by Lachlan Macquarie, colonial governor of New South Wales 1810-21, and accordingly is locally known as a Macquarie Town, a title given to townships established by Governor Macquarie in and around the Sydney metropolitan area.
