}}Aldershot is a town and a locality in the Fraser Coast Region, Queensland, Australia.[1][2]

History

The Queensland Smelting Company named the town after Aldershot in England.[1] The company was established in England in 1888 and in 1893 built a smelter in the area. The smelter operated until 1906, when it was relocated to North Queensland to be closer to the mining areas.[3]

Aldershot Post Office opened on 1 September 1892 and closed around 1920.[4]

A primary school opened in Aldershot in 1894.[5] It appears to have closed by 1911, when tenders were called to relocate the school buildings to Maryborough West and the teacher's residence to Gayndah.[6]

Economy

The major industry in Aldershot today is the Maryborough Correctional Centre located at Stein Road.[7]
