The County of Yarrol is a county (a cadastral division) in Queensland, Australia, located in the Wide Bay–Burnett region to the west of Bundaberg.[1][2] On 7 March 1901, the Governor issued a proclamation legally dividing Queensland into counties under the Land Act 1897.[3] Its schedule described Yarrol thus:

Bounded on the east by the county of Bowen; on the south and west by the Burnett River upwards to the western watershed of Three Moon Creek, by that watershed northerly to the southern watershed of Glassford Creek; and on the north by the southern boundary of the parish of Bompa.
