Nar Nar Goon

The small township of Nar Nar Goon is situated on the Gippsland railway line, about 63 km east of Melbourne. Mount Ararat pastoral run was taken up in 1844, occupying the foothills of the ranges to the north and flat land fringing swamps to the south. Land was sold in the 1850s and 1860s, with many of the settlers originating from the Monteagle estate in Limerick, Ireland.
