The Warren River is a river in the South West region of Western Australia with a catchment encompassing the towns of Manjimup and Pemberton.〔 The river was named by Governor James Stirling, probably after Admiral Sir John Borlase Warren under whom Stirling served whilst in action in North America in 1813. ==History== The river was first encountered in 1831 by Lieutenant William Preston RN, first of the ''Success'', then of the ''Sulphur''. Preston was in charge of a boat survey of the south-west coast from Albany to Fremantle. The boat was wrecked near Green Point and Preston and his crew were forced to make the first land journey from Albany to Fremantle, along the coast. Preston was a brother-in-law of Governor Stirling. The first settler on the Warren was Edward Reveley Brockman, who in 1862, established Warren House homestead and station on the banks of the river.
