A former Catholic Church deacon has been charged with sexually abusing a 14-year-old boy in NSW during the 1970s.

The 66-year-old was arrested on Thursday over the alleged sexual abuse of the then 14-year-old boy between 1974 and 1975 in the Hunter region.

The abuse was initially reported to police in November last year.

The 66-year-old has been charged with four counts of indecent assault on a male under 14 years of age.

He was granted conditional bail to appear before Newcastle Local Court on October 8.
