Mundrabilla Land District is a land district (cadastral division) of Western Australia, located within the Eucla Land Division on the Nullarbor Plain. It spans roughly 31°00'S - 32°00'S in latitude and 127°30'E - 129°00'E in longitude.
The district is located on the Nullarbor Plain on the Western Australia–South Australia border, and falls generally between the Great Australian Bight to the south and the Trans-Australian Railway to the north. The town of Eucla on the Eyre Highway and the railway town of Forrest are located within its boundaries.[1]
The district was created on 4 March 1903. When the Trans-Australian Railway was being built in 1914, the district was adjusted such that the railway formed its northern boundary. It was hence defined in the Government Gazette:
