Deviot is a locality and small rural community in the local government area of West Tamar, in the Western Tamar Valley region of Tasmania.[2] It is located about north-west of the town of Launceston.[3] The Tamar River forms the eastern and north-eastern boundaries. The 2016 census determined a population of 337 for the state suburb of Deviot.[1]
The locality was gazetted in 1967. Its name may be derived from a property named "Deviot House" which once existed in the district. The word "deviot" is believed to be a derivative of "devious".[4]
The C729 route (Motor Road) runs north-east from the West Tamar Highway and passes through the locality.[5]
