Description

Spencer is a suburb of the Central Coast region of New South Wales, Australia. It is located on the north bank of the Hawkesbury River just upstream of that river's confluence with Mangrove Creek. Spencer is part of the City of Gosford local government area. Spencer is bounded by the Hawkesbury River to the south and west and Mangrove Creek to the east. Despite the relatively short distance from the Sydney- Newcastle Freeway as the crow flies, a boat across Mangrove Creek significantly reduces the distance to be travelled. The economy is rural based with farming and fishing as its main source of income. Tourism is a growing concern that is based around the history of the area and the beautiful scenery.
