Tunbridge, TAS 7120
Overview
Tunbridge is a quiet rural locality straddling the Northern and Southern Midlands councils in Tasmania’s Central region, situated about 24 km north of Oatlands. With a modest 2016 census population of 145, the town retains a historic charm rooted in its origins as a coaching stop on the Hobart‑Launceston road, later the Midland Highway. The legacy of three 19th‑century inns and the post office (opened 1856) adds a touch of heritage to everyday life, while the surrounding countryside offers the spacious, low‑density housing typical of a small Tasmanian community.
The Midland Highway (National Route 1) runs straight through Tunbridge, providing swift north‑south connectivity, and Tunbridge Tier Road (C526) links the settlement westward. The Blackman River, flowing via the Blackman Dam, threads the locality, and nearby natural features such as One Mile Hill and Floods Creek enhance outdoor recreation opportunities for residents who enjoy a relaxed, country‑side lifestyle.
Region type mix: Regional 67%, Metro 33%.
