Kurrajong is an abandoned townsite in the eastern goldfields region, located about 40 km
north west of Leonora. Gold was discovered here in the late
1890's, and the place was referred to as "Diorite King", after the name of a
nearby mine. In 1897 surveyor H S King surveyed some lots for a residential
area, and two years later, in 1899, a townsite was gazetted. Kurrajong is named after the
Aboriginal name of a species of tree.
