The County of Carlisle is a county (a cadastral division) in Queensland, Australia. The county is centred on the city of Mackay and includes most of the Mackay Region. It takes its name from Carlisle in England.[1][2]

On 7 March 1901, the Governor issued a proclamation legally dividing Queensland into counties under the Land Act 1897.[3] Its schedule described Carlisle thus:

Bounded on the south by the counties of Murchison, Wodehouse and Grosvenor; on the west by the eastern boundaries of Suttor Creek and Cerito portion B Resumption, Byerwen Consolidation and Havilah Lease, part of the south and the east boundaries of Sonomo Resumption, and by the east boundary of Henry O.L.; on the north by the south boundaries of Ellen Valley Consolidations, parts of the west and north boundaries of the Normanby Gold Field, part of the west and the south boundaries of Mountain Home Lease, the south boundary of Mountain Home Resumption, part of the north-west, the south and east boundaries of Bromby Park Lease to the Andromache River, by that river and the O'Connell River downwards to the sea-coast; and on the east by the sea-coast,—inclusive of all adjacent islands.
