It was named and bounded by the Governor in Council on 7 March 1901 under the Land Act 1897.[1][2] Its name likely honours Edward Cardwell, who was Secretary of State for the Colonies in 1864–1866 and later served as a reformist Secretary of State for War.

gollark: I've patched dimension support into the GPS libraries in potatOS and my trilaterating GPS server. Would people be interested in dimension support in GPS and/or should I PR it into CC: Tweaked?
gollark: `shell.exit()`
gollark: PotatOS actually had termination completely broken for... probably a few months... and somehow I didn't notice for ages and neither did anyone else.
gollark: What if they just terminate it?
gollark: 8!? Wow, that's 40320.
