Description
Cache is NOT at posted coordinates.
During 1867, whilst undertaking a road survey, Charles Cooke Hunt recorded the words Three Springs after some nearby springs. The name began to appear on official maps from then on, and land in this region was soon taken up for pastoral leasing. When the Midland railway from Midland Junction to Walkaway was opened in 1895, Three Springs was a siding on the line, and the area opened up. Today the main industry is wheat farming.
