The property is situated approximately {{convert|150|km|mi|0}} south east of Timber Creek and {{convert|430|km|mi|0}} south of Darwin. HistoryKillarney Station was established by Eric Izod with managing partner Ivor Hall in 1953.[1] Bill Tapp purchased Killarney following talks with Izod and Hall about buying Killarney Station in 1960. Tapp paid £90,000, a Northern Territory record price for a cattle station at that time. He received title to Killarney in 1962.[2]The Tapp family properties, including Killarney Station went into receivership in 1991.[3] Brian Oxenford's Western Grazing Company purchased the property. Wallco acquired Killarney in 2001 from Western Grazing Company.[4] The property was being run in conjunction with neighbouring Birrimba Station forming an aggregation with an area of {{convert|5515|km2|sqmi|0}} that was supporting a herd of 41,000 Brahman cattle. In 2012 the property was run by Wallco Pastoral Company until it was placed in receivership by the National Australia Bank before a refinancing.[5] Killarney was sold in 2014 to the Jumbuck Pastoral Company for about {{AUD}}35 million. At the time it occupied an area of {{cvt|2819|km2|sqmi|0}}.[6] Most of Birrimba and a small portion of Killarney were burnt out by a bushfire in 2014.[7] See also
