Quambatook is situated on the Avoca river & was originally settled when gold fever of the 1850's passed & a large number of men were faced with making a living from the land
Quambatook emerged as one of Victoria's flourishing wheat & sheep areas.
These industries are still alive & well with tonnes of grain produced annually
John Williams the singer was born here & spent his teenage years in this quiet town
