IN BRIEF Triabunna is an Aboriginal word for native hen.

Industries have included whaling stations, sandstone quarrying, and tramways. A military garrison was stationed here in colonial days.

Swansea was the administrative centre for the Municipality of Glamorgan (AustraliaĦs oldest rural municipality, founded in 1860) until April 1993 when it merged with Spring Bay (the second oldest rural municipality, founded eight months after Glamorgan) - administration then transferred to Triabunna.
