Location and features
The district is located on the Nullarbor Plain about half-way between the towns of Norseman and Balladonia. The Eyre Highway forms part of the southern boundary of the district, and the Fraser Range is entirely contained within it.[1]
History
The district was approved on 3 September 1897 by the Commissioner of Crown Lands.[2] As it was approved prior to the Land Act 1898, its boundaries were never gazetted.
