Cooroy, Queensland
Cooroy is a town in Queensland, Australia, located in the northern Sunshine Coast hinterland about west of Noosa Heads. It is within the local government area of Shire of Noosa (between 2008 and 2013 it was within Sunshine Coast Region).
==History==
Cooroy's name came from Cooroy Mountain, which was originally called Coorooey, from the Aboriginal word for possum, ''kurui''.〔(South East Queensland - Place Names ) 16 December 2006〕
The area was explored by timber-cutters as early as 1863. Cooroy railway station was opened in 1891 and in the same year a post office opened. A town survey was conducted in 1907. Cooroy's main industry developed from timber, having two operating sawmills, into dairying and fruit growing. In 1915, a butter factory opened.〔
The town was bisected by the Bruce Highway until a bypass was built.
