Information

The Goomaram Creek Telephone Office, located in rural Queensland, served as a small telecommunications hub in the early 20th century. Established to connect the remote farming community to the wider region, the office facilitated essential communication through the manual exchange of telephone calls. It operated during an era when telephone technology was expanding into Australia's rural areas, supporting local agriculture and social interaction. Over time, advancements in technology and infrastructure rendered small offices like Goomaram Creek obsolete, leading to their closure. There is nothing here indicating its former existence and no access.
