Currawang
Cadastral in New South Wales, Australia / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Currawang is a rural locality, located to the north of Lake George.[2] in New South Wales, Australia. It lies on the intersection between three councils, with the majority straddling the boundary between the Queanbeyan–Palerang Regional Council and Goulburn-Mulwaree Council and a small portion of the locality in the Upper Lachlan Shire. It shares its name with the Currawang Parish of Argyle County, in which it is located.[3] This was formerly known as the parish of Currowang.[4] Both names derive from an Aboriginal word for the spearwood tree (Acacia doratoxylon).[2]
