Lochington, Queensland

Lochington is a rural locality in the Central Highlands Region, Queensland, Australia.[1] Lochington is bounded to the east and south-east by the Nogoa River.[3] The Capricorn Highway passes through the northernmost part of the locality from Anakie Siding to Willows.[3] Lochington pastoral station obtained a mail service on 1 January 1937.This included adjusting the boundaries of other existing localities in the Region to accommodate these changes; Lochington lost a small portion of land to the north to the new Anakie Siding, lost a strip of land from its north-eastern edge mostly to Gindie but gained a small piece of land from Minerva, with the overall effect of reducing the area of the locality from 4,533.6 to 4,455.5 square kilometres (1,750.4 to 1,720.3 sq mi).
