Description

 

Fruit vegetables, beef and sheep are the area’s main industries. The town grew up around the Blackwood Inn, which was constructed in 1860. Originally a station on the Donnybrook to Bridgetown railway that opened in 1898, the town was gazetted in 1901.

The name is from the Aboriginal language and is said to mean ‘place where young men have their noses pierced’. All that from just Mullalyup? What an economical language.
