History

Settlement of the area dates from the 1830s when squatters began to settle along the Peel River. Growth was minimal until the 1880s, aided by the construction of the railway line. Significant development occurred in the post-war years, particularly during the 1960s and 1970s. The population has been relatively stable since the early 1990s, a result of some new dwellings being added to the area, but a decline in the average number of persons living in each dwelling.^[2]
