Elderslie is a rural locality in the local government areas of Central Highlands and Southern Midlands in the Central region of Tasmania. It is located about south-east of the town of Hamilton. The 2016 census determined a population of 149 for the state suburb of Elderslie.[1]
Elderslie was gazetted as a locality in 1970.[2]
The Jordan River flows through from north-east to south-east, forming small sections of the northern and southern boundaries as it enters and exits.
The C185 route (Elderslie Road) enters from the south-east and runs through the village to exit in the north-east. Route C182 (Pelham Road) starts at an intersection with C185 in the village and runs north-west until it exits. Route C183 (Bluff Road) starts at an intersection with C185 in the south-east and runs generally south-west until it exits.[2] [3]
