Imbil is a rural town and locality in the Gympie Region, Queensland, Australia.[2][3] In the 2021 census, the locality of Imbil had a population of 1,071 people.[1]

Geography

[edit]

Imbil is in the Wide Bay–Burnett district in the Mary River valley, 160 kilometres (99 mi) north of the state capital, Brisbane.

History

[edit]

The town takes its name from the Imbil pastoral run which was named 1857 by the pastoralists Clement Francis Lawless and Paul Lawless. Imbil is a Kabi word referring to the bamboo vine, and is also used to refer to a lagoon below the Imbil station house.[2][4]

The town was established in 1868 at the start of the gold rush in the area.[5]

In 1887, 21,760 acres (8,810 ha) of land were resumed from the Imbil pastoral run. The land was offered for selection for the establishment of small farms on 17 April 1887.[6]

The first Imbil post office opened on 9 July 1870 and closed in 1872. The second office opened in 1877 and closed in 1907. The third office opened by 1919.[citation needed]

Imbil Provisional School opened on 19 July 1897. Due to fluctuating student numbers, it closed and reopened a number of times before closing in 1911. In 1915 it reopened as Imbil State School. On 30 January 1962 a secondary school section was added. On 30 November 2002 it was renamed Mary Valley State College.[7]

The opening of the Mary Valley branch railway line (now the Mary Valley Rattler) in 1914 brought a second surge of development to the town.[5] Imbil was served by the Imbil railway station at William Street (26°27′38″S 152°40′34″E / 26.4606°S 152.6761°E / -26.4606; 152.6761 (Imbil railway station (former))).[8]

An Imbil Railway Station Post Office opened in 1917 (a receiving office had been open from 1915) and closed in 1920.[9]

Imbil United Protestant Church was built at 3 Elizabeth Street (26°27′39″S 152°40′30″E / 26.4607°S 152.6751°E / -26.4607; 152.6751 (Imbil United Protestant / Methodist Church (former))) by the Congregational Church with an official opening on Thursday 15 May 1919 by Reverend Stanley Morrison, the President of the Congregational Union.[10] In 1940 it was sold to the Methodist Church for £125, becoming Imbil Methodist Church.[11]

Christ Church Anglican was dedicated on Wednesday 28 May 1924 by Archbishop Gerald Sharp.[12][13] Its closure circa 2018 was approved by Bishop Jeremy Greaves. It is located at 88 Yabba Road (26°27′37″S 152°40′24″E / 26.4602°S 152.6732°E / -26.4602; 152.6732 (Christ Church Anglican (former))).[14][15][16][17]

On Saturday 13 November 1926 William Lennon, the Queensland Lieutenant-Governor, officially opened the Imbil Memorial School of Arts, which was built by the Imbil sub-branch of the R.S.S.I.L.A. to commemorate those who served and died in World War I.[18]

In 1955 St Columba's Presbyterian Church was opened on the corner of Myers Street and Yabba Road (approx 26°27′36″S 152°40′26″E / 26.4599°S 152.6738°E / -26.4599; 152.6738 (St Columba's Presbyterian Church (former))). In 1976 in the lead-up to the amalgamation of the Methodist, Presbyterian and Congregational Churches into the Uniting Church in Australia in 1977, the Presbyterian church building was relocated to be adjacent to the Methodist Church building in Elizabeth Street and is now the Imbil Uniting Church, while the former Methodist Church building is now used as the church hall.[19][20]

The Imbil Public Library building opened in 1987.[21]

Imbil War Memorial, 2008
