Manoora, SA 5414
Overview
Manoora sits on the Barrier Highway amid the Upper Gilbert River in South Australia’s Mid North. At the 2021 Census the settlement recorded 134 residents, offering a close‑knit, rural lifestyle framed by open country and the nearby Bonney Flat Creek. Its origins date back to the 1840s when early pastoralists established the first European homestead, and the town’s name reflects an Aboriginal term for a spring or water source.
Local amenities include a government primary school within two kilometres and a weather station that has monitored the area since 1891. While the historic broad‑gauge railway line, once a terminus in 1870, ceased passenger services in 1986 and closed in 2004, road links via the Barrier Highway remain the main transport corridor. The community’s built environment features residences that echo the town’s long‑standing sandstone quarrying heritage, providing a mix of traditional stone‑faced homes and newer dwellings.
Region type mix: Metro 100%.
