==History==
Rutherford has a historical association with racing from 1858 onwards. In 1886 a landscaped racecourse was constructed for use by the Northern Jockey Club. The complex was progressively expanded, including the addition of a private rail siding with unloading facilities, as well as two grandstands each seating up to 1000, a bar and visitor amenities. A major meeting in 1921 saw a record crowd of 7777. The racecourse was also used as a landing ground by pioneer aviators Charles Kingsford Smith and Bert Hinkler.
After falling into disused by the outbreak of World War II, the racecourse site was sold and a munitions factory built on the site, now an industrial estate in Rutherford's west. The factory operated from 1941-1945 before being converted to a textiles mill.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Financial Review - News Store )〕 At its peak, the National Textiles factory was a major employer in Maitland, with a workforce of over 1500, although this number had shrunk to around 350 by the time of its closure in 2004. Air raid shelters built to protect workers during the war remain intact on the site.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Rutherford bomb factory now and then )
The Rutherford Cemetery is a Methodist cemetery, with the first recorded burial taking place in 1874, it remains in use.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Rutherford Cemetery )
