The locality is in the Shire of Central Goldfields, 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) south of Maryborough and 171 kilometres (106 mi) north west of the state capital, Melbourne.

Two months later, there were 250 stores and restaurants catering to a population of around three to four thousand, although many shops and residents soon returned to nearby Maryborough.

It is now a rural area consisting mainly of farmland and the Tullaroop Reservoir which helps provide water to Maryborough.

[3] The old Majorca store was destroyed by fire and subsequently demolished on May 27, 2015.
