Tests have confirmed that a horse that died in northern New South Wales last week was suffering from the hendra virus.

The horse died suddenly at a property at Lismore on Thursday.

It is the fourth case of the bat-borne disease in New South Wales in recent months.

The state's chief vet Dr Ian Roth says a blood sample was taken from the horse and tests confirmed it has hendra virus.
