Geography

The Condamine Kogan Road traverses the locality from south-east (Hopeland/Montrose) to south-west (Nangram/Wieambilla). The Chinchilla Tara Road traverses the locality from north (Greenswamp) to south (Wieambilla).[3] These two roads intersect in roughly the centre of the locality and presumably provide the name for the locality.[3]

gollark: Automation is just not that good yet.
gollark: What? No.
