The nearest town is Yea. HistoryThe locality was named after a nearby pastoral run called Cheviot Hills, which in turn was named after the locality on the English-Scottish border. It was also called Ross Creek.[1][2] From 1889 until 1978 there was an active railway station here on the now historic and abandoned Cheviot railway station which took route on the Mansfield-Tallarook line. Cheviot Post Office opened on 9 April 1890 after the arrival of the railway, and closed in 1944.[3] The rails have gone but an old goods shed survives, and to the northeast the Cheviot Tunnel provides an excellent example of brick workmanship of the nineteenth century. A Ross Creek Post Office opened on 14 October 1865 and closed in 1969.[3] References{{commons category}}1. ^Nigel Sinnott, Place-names of the Alexandra, Lake Eildon and Big River area of Victoria ({{ISBN|0957-809-80-8}}) {{Towns in Murrindindi Shire}}{{VictoriaAU-geo-stub}}2. ^Harvey Blanks, The Story of Yea ({{ISBN|0725-601-07-8}}) 3. ^1 {{Citation | last = Premier Postal History | title = Post Office List | url = https://www.premierpostal.com/cgi-bin/wsProd.sh/Viewpocdwrapper.p?SortBy=VIC&country= | accessdate = 2008-04-11 }} |
