Meelon, Western Australia

Meelon is a small townsite in the Peel region of Western Australia, located between Pinjarra and Dwellingup within the Shire of Murray.

[2] It was originally established as a saw-milling site by the local timber industry in the 1900s and was serviced by a siding on the Pinjarra-Narrogin railway.

Following the decline of the industry in the 1950s, Meelon all but disappeared, and today primarily consists of medium-acreage farms which are dependent on Pinjarra for services.

The locality is home to two heritage-listed homesteads, the Kirkham House, also referred to as Riverdale and dating back to 1900, and the Burnside Homestead, constructed in 1860.
