Catterick is a rural locality of the Shire of Bridgetown–Greenbushes in the South West region of Western Australia.[1] [2]

The Shire of Bridgetown–Greenbushes is located on the traditional land of the Bibulman (also spelled Bibbulmun or Pibelmen)[3] [4] and Wardandi (also spelled Wadandi) people,[5] [6] both of the Noongar nation.[7] [8]

Catterick was a siding on the Picton to Northcliffe railway, originally named Yandil until renamed in 1924.[9]
