Calomba is a rural locality in South Australia, situated in the Adelaide Plains Council.

[2][4] The place name is supposed to have come from Trigonella suavissima, a native plant also known as calomba.

Three buildings in the main street were destroyed, including the post office and store; a church, homes and farm equipment were also lost.

[11] The Shannon Methodist Church was opened in 1872, closed in 1957 and demolished in 1965.
