Interesting facts about this location
Leigh Creek, South Australia
Leigh Creek (formerly Leigh's Creek) is a coal-mining town in the north of South Australia. At the 2006 census, Leigh Creek had a population of 549. On the edge of the desert, to the west of the northern Flinders Ranges, the current town is 13 km further south than the original town—it was moved in 1982 to allow the expansion of the mine. This means that most facilities and buildings in the town are only a little over twenty years old, and with relatively modern designs.
