The terrrain is somewhat mountainous with the land in the valleys between being used for farming. The New England Highway and South Western railway line pass from north to south-west through the locality. A small area in the east of the locality is part of the Girraween National Park.[3] HistoryThe locality was named and bounded on 15 December 2000.[1] It was presumably named after the Fletcher railway station, which was named by the Queensland Railways Department in 1887, after orchardist Thomas Henry Fletcher, who pioneered the growing of fruit in the Granite Belt area.[4] References1. ^1 {{cite QPN|45927|Fletcher|locality in Southern Downs Region|accessdate=24 November 2018}} {{Southern Downs Region}}{{Queensland-geo-stub}}2. ^1 {{Census 2016 AUS|id=SSC31061|name=Fletcher (SSC)|accessdate=20 October 2018|quick=on}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://qldglobe.information.qld.gov.au/|title=Queensland Globe|publisher=State of Queensland|accessdate=23 November 2018}} 4. ^{{Cite QPN|12756|Fletcher|Railway station in the Southern Downs Region|accessdate=24 November 2018}} 1 : Southern Downs Region |
