Shire of Tambellup

The Shire of Tambellup was a local government area in the Great Southern region of Western Australia, about 40 km south of Katanning and about 330 km south-southeast of the state capital, Perth. The Shire covered an area of 1436 km2, and its seat of government was the town of Tambellup.

The Tambellup Road District was gazetted on 13 October 1905. On 1 July 1961, it became a shire council following the enactment of the Local Government Act 1960, which reformed all remaining road districts into shires. On 1 July 2008, after 10 months of planning and preparation, it merged with the neighbouring Shire of Broomehill to form the Shire of Broomehill-Tambellup.
