About Inglewood
Inglewood is a town situated on the southern
Darling Downs in Queensland, Australia, 150 km
(93 mi) south-west of Toowoomba.
Inglewood is the second largest town in the
Goondiwindi Region as well as being part of the
Border Rivers region of waterways.
Inglewood was the council seat of the former
Shire of Inglewood until its amalgamation to
form part of the larger Goondiwindi Region.
The current slogan for the town is 'Catch the
country spirit'.
Inglewood sits midway between the larger
centres of Warwick and Goondiwindi on the
Cunningham Highway. The confluence of the
Macintyre Brook and Canning Creek is sited
just north of Inglewood, with the brook running
270° around the town. Olive growing is a
comparatively new industry in the area. Other
established industries include sheep and cattle
raising, grain growing and timber harvesting.
Tobacco growing was common around
Inglewood over the last 60 years.
