Hundred of Cudlamudla

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hundred of Cudlamudla is a cadastral hundred of the County of Newcastle in South Australia, that is located at 32°11′42″S 138°12′54″E / 32.195°S 138.215°E / -32.195; 138.215 in the Flinders Ranges. The traditional owners of the area are the Ngadjuri people.[1] The first European explorer to the area was Thomas Burr in September 1842. The hundred now combines with the adjacent Hundred of Kanyaka to constitute the locality of Kanyaka.[2]

The nearby town of Willochra was surveyed in 1860 but the town never properly developed and was abandoned during the drought in the 1860s.[3]
