Burley
Burley is a community at the head of Burley Lagoon in Henderson Bay.
Established in the 1890s by the Co-operative Brotherhood, it was named Circle City, with buildings laid out on the periphery of a circle. When the colony failed in 1908, the present name was adopted for the creek that runs past town, which is the namesake of an early settler who was not a member of the colony.
The Burley Community Club maintains an Events Page at www.burleycommunityclub.org, and can be emailed at burleyclub@gmail.com
