Hi
Sutherland Astronomical Society have a semi dark site at Waterfall, adjacent to the Royal National Park. Be about an hour drive off peak from Kensington. I've imaged from there before and you can image from there filter free. There are a couple of sodium lights that can interfere from the railway station if you image in that direction. It is an old cricket ground at the back of the school so it has clear views horizon to horizon. North is no good due to the light dome that is Sydney and while there is a bit of a dome to the South from Wollongong it isn't that bad that you can't see the SMC and LMC naked eye. They have viewing nights on Saturday nights on 3rd quarter and new moons. There is also a site at Bargo but there has been access issues to the site. It's a cracker of a site so close to Sydney but views are quite restricted East and West due to trees.
The Pony Club the Central Coast guys utilise may be of interest too. I haven't been up there but there are plenty of threads on here with maps etc.
