Wannon Shire

Wannon Shire (1872-1994) was in western Victoria, occupying an area known geographically as the Dundas plateau, in a sense the most westerly foothills of the Grampians. The shire’s eastern boundary coincided with the Rocklands reservoir, a storage filled by westerly streams from the Grampians. The streams converge in the Glenelg River (the shire’s northern boundary) which flows along the base of the plateau before crossing the Western District in a southerly direction.
