Overview

Worlds End lies 18 km southeast of Burra in South Australia, covering the area once known as Lapford. The land was traditionally Ngadjuri country; a government town was surveyed in June 1877 but never developed, with a few blocks finally sold in 1941 before the town was formally declared defunct in December 1962. Historically the community was served by a post office (1876‑1971), a school (1888‑1944), a Wesleyan Methodist church that also hosted classes (1889‑1975), and local cricket and tennis teams, reflecting a once‑active rural settlement.

Today the locality offers a tranquil, countryside lifestyle dominated by open land and historic homesteads. Residents benefit from close proximity to the Mimbara Conservation Park and the Government Dam, both within 5 km, providing opportunities for nature walks and recreation. With Burra only a short drive away, the area blends modest rural housing on former town blocks with larger agricultural properties, appealing to those seeking a quiet, land‑based setting while remaining linked to nearby services.
