Stirling North, South Australia

Stirling North is a suburb located 7 km east of Port Augusta in South Australia.〔 It acts primarily as a satellite town to Port Augusta with the town's railway station lying at a major rail junction linking the Port Augusta power station and the main east-west rail link to the coal rail link to Leigh Creek.〔 It also lies on the junction of the Augusta Highway and the Flinders Ranges Way. At the , Stirling North had a population of 1,698.〔
==History==
The town of Stirling North was surveyed in 1859 as "Stirling North" after Edward Stirling Snr, MLC,〔 but was renamed 'Catninga' after a nearby creek. In 1916 however, this decision was overturned and the name was reverted to 'Stirling North'.〔
In 1871, a prison was established near the town,〔 and still exists today.〔
The town has existed mainly to service the railroads, with Leigh Creek coal freighted down to Port Augusta for use in the power station. The historic Pichi Richi Railway runs through Stirling North, between Port Augusta and Quorn, one of the only tourist attractions within the town.〔
