It is located about north-east of the town of New Norfolk. The 2016 census determined a population of 167 for the state suburb of Broadmarsh.[1]
Broadmarsh was gazetted as a locality in 1970. The name was used for a farm in the area in 1836.[2]

The C185 route (Elderslie Road) enters from the north and runs through via the town to the south-east, where it exits. Route C186 (Black Brush Road) starts at an intersection with C185 and runs north-east until it exits.[2] [3]
