Princess Royal, Western Australia
Princess Royal is an abandoned town in the Goldfields-Esperance region in Western Australia.
A rich Gold reef was discovered in the area in the 1895 by a party of prospectors - Chester, Peddler and Flanagan. Alluvial gold was later found in 1900 and a townsite was established to house the miners. The townsite was later gazetted in 1904. The name of the town is derived from the ''Princess Royal'' mine that was operating prior to 1900. The mine and town were both named after the eldest daughter of Queen Victoria the Princess Royal, Victoria Adelaide Mary Louisa.
A police station was built before 1905 and the first officer in charge arrived in that year; the station later closed in 1908. The town boasted four hotels in 1906 as well as a host of other businesses.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Morawa District Historical society )〕
