Overview

Ross lies on the Macquarie River, 78 km south of Launceston and 117 km north of Hobart, forming a peaceful stop on the historic road between the two cities. The village is famed for its sandstone heritage, especially the 1836 Ross Bridge, one of Australia’s oldest still‑in‑use bridges, and the “Four Corners” intersection of Church and Bridge Streets. A mix of original Georgian and Victorian homes, former inns now private residences, and newer dwellings creates a varied housing stock within the heritage‑rich centre.

Local amenities include the Tasmanian Wool Centre museum, the 1860 Ross Village Bakery famed for its connection to Kiki’s Delivery Service, three churches, a neo‑classical Town Hall and the Ross War Memorial Library. Road links keep the village well connected to Launceston and Hobart, while Tooms Lake dam supplies water. This blend of heritage attractions and practical services offers a relaxed lifestyle with convenient access to regional centres.
