Geography


The locality lies a short distance south-east of Lake Wivenhoe.[citation needed]

England Creek (the watercourse) forms part of the eastern boundary before flowing through to the Brisbane River.[4]

The Brisbane Valley Highway and the Wivenhoe Somerset Road (State Route 31) pass to the south-west, while the Mount Nebo Road (also part of State Route 32) runs along the north-eastern boundary. The main route through the locality is England Creek Road, which enters from the Brisbane Valley Highway.[citation needed]

The locality presumably takes its name from the creek.

In the 2016 census, England Creek had a population of 33 people.[1]
