Baringhup, VIC

Located on the Loddon River the township of Baringhup was surveyed and proclaimed in 1859. The 1871 census collector noted that the town was on the river’s eastern side (East Baringhup) and that the western side contained several scattered mining centres. Between 1861 and 1891 Baringhup’s population remained constant at around 40 but had increased to 122 by 1901.
