The historic Maryvale Station, from which it derives its name, has been in occupation since at least the 1860s; from 1863, it was owned by prominent colonists William Austin Horn and John Morphett.[2] The station complex, including the homestead, school, shearing shed and shearers' quarters, is listed on the South Australian Heritage Register.[3]
