Bangall is a former rural locality in the Barcaldine Region, Queensland, Australia.[2] In the 2016 census, Bangall had a population of 4 people.[1]

On 22 November 2019 the Queensland Government decided to amalgamate the localities in the Barcaldine Region, resulting in five expanded localities based on the larger towns: Alpha, Aramac, Barcaldine, Jericho and Muttaburra. Bangall was incorporated into Muttaburra.[3][4][5]

Geography

[edit]

Bangall Creek and Western Creek flow through the locality towards the south-east, eventually becoming tributaries of the Thomson River and hence part of the Lake Eyre basin.[6]

The predominant land use is cattle grazing.[6]

Education

There are no schools in Bangall. The nearest primary schools are in Muttaburra and Winton and the nearest secondary schools are in Aramac, Barcaldine, Longreach and Winton.[6]
