Mulloon is a locality in the Queanbeyan-Palerang Region, Southern Tablelands, New South Wales, Australia.[2][3]
Mulloon lies generally to the south of the Kings Highway between Bungendore and Braidwood on both sides of Mulloon Creek, a tributary of Reedy Creek, which flows into the Shoalhaven River.
At the 2016 census, it had a population of 144.[1]
Mullooon had a public school from 1872 to 1886, which operated "half-time". It was called Ingledow School until 1886.[4]
In recent years, Mulloon Creek has become well known, as the location of projects to revive this watercourse and the eroded and degraded land within its catchment.[5]
