Dunmore is a rural locality in the Toowoomba Region, Queensland, Australia.[2] In the 2016 census, Dunmore had a population of 26 people.[1]

History

The locality takes its name from the parish name, which in turn was named after the pastoral run held by Robert Logan in the 1840s. The run might have been named in honour of Presbyeterian minister John Dunmore Lang.[2]
