Dartmouth is a small rural town in north-east Victoria near the headwaters of the Mitta Mitta River, 75 km south-east of Wodonga. It is 4 km downstream of Lake Dartmouth, Victoria’s largest water storage.
Dartmouth was named after the Dart River, now east of, and cut off by, Lake Dartmouth. The river was presumably named after the Dart River, England, although nineteenth century references also record Victoria’s river as the Dark.
