The shire covered an area of {{convert|3254.45|km2|sqmi|1}}, and existed from 1862 until 1995. From 1966 onwards, Kerang itself was managed by a separate entity; the Borough of Kerang. HistoryThe Swan Hill Road District, which initially covered most of northwestern Victoria, was incorporated on 8 July 1862, and became a shire on 14 August 1871. The Shire of Gordon was severed and incorporated on 26 May 1885, from parts of the East and West Loddon Ridings, and the Shire of Mildura followed suit on 10 January 1890, from the Lower Murray Riding, as did the Shire of Castle Donnington on 30 May 1893, from the remainder of those three ridings. The remainder of the shire was renamed the Shire of Kerang, on 31 December 1898.[2] On 8 March 1922, parts of the North East and South East Ridings severed and was incorporated as the Shire of Cohuna, while the area around Kerang itself was incorporated as the Borough of Kerang, on 1 April 1966. On 5 July 1977, the Shire of Gordon annexed some land in Kerang's southwest. On 20 January 1995, the Shire of Kerang was abolished, and, along with the Borough of Kerang, and the Shire of Cohuna, was merged into the newly created Shire of Gannawarra. The Tresco township was transferred to the newly created Rural City of Swan Hill.[3] WardsThe Shire of Kerang was divided into three ridings on 1 April 1990, each of which elected three councillors:
