Hill River (South Australia)
〔''Register'' newspaper, 9 December 1864, page 2.〕
Hill River is an ephemeral river in South Australia. The Hill River rises about east of Penwortham and then flows northward for about , roughly parallel but to the east of the Hutt River. Near the town of Spalding, like the Hutt, it becomes a tributary of the Broughton River.
==Geography==
The Hill River drains a catchment area of . Flows which are intermittent, can result from either winter rains or local thunderstorms. The average annual observed flow in 2000–04 was 2,568 ML/a. Most of the catchment emanates from the Camels Hump Range and to a lesser degree from the Stony Range. Slab Hut Creek is amongst the more significant tributaries. The river has a low gradient which, combined with a broad and shallow catchment valley, renders it unsuitable as the site of any significant reservoir. In some areas the clearing of native vegetation has led to erosion and steep banks. The Hill River also gives its name to the locality of Hill River, which is within the District Council of Clare and Gilbert Valleys.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://maps.sa.gov.au/plb/# )〕
A 1600mm gauge railway line, now closed and removed, ran as a spur line from Clare, through the Hill River valley, parallel to the river, with stations at Barinia, Hilltown, Andrews, and Spalding (the terminus).
