Overview

Woolsthorpe is a small rural town in the Shire of Moyne, perched where the Woolsthorpe‑Heywood, Koroit‑Woolsthorpe and Warrnambool‑Caramut roads converge on the banks of Spring Creek. The crossroads give easy car access to nearby centres, with the larger regional hub of Warrnambool only 26.5 km to the south. Local life centres around the National Hotel, the town’s long‑standing pub, and the historic post office that opened in 1861, providing a modest hub for residents and travellers alike.

At the 2016 census Woolsthorpe recorded 422 inhabitants. The surrounding landscape is dominated by sheep and cattle farms, so housing is a blend of town‑based homes and farm properties. The area is part of the traditional lands of the Eastern Maar peoples, represented by the Eastern Maar Aboriginal Corporation.
