A whistle stop on the south west highway it is little more than a general store these days. Located north of Pinjarra it was a railway siding and dates from 1897.

The name is believed to have come from Thomas Charles Key who owned land in the area. The land was inherited by the 4 Key sisters who sold up in 1912 to M.E. Tonkin.

The townsite was gazetted in 1916.
