Nalyerlup is a rural locality of the Shire of Gnowangerup in the Great Southern region of Western Australia. Chester Pass Road forms the western border of Nalyerlup.[1] [2]
Nalyerlup and the Shire of Gnowangerup are located on the traditional land of the Koreng people of the Noongar nation.[3] [4]
Located in the far north of the locality, Nightwell, which is on the shire's heritage register, is a long solid bed of granite outcrop in the Peenebup Creek. Nightwell was an important water source for the indigenous population of the area. It was dry during the day, but water would rush in through a hole in a cleft at night. The water source was spoilt by a surveyor in the 1920s when he attempted to enlarge the hole with explosives.[5]
Near Nightwell, at the Nightwell Road crossing of the Peenebup Creek, there is a heritage listed grave of an Aboriginal infant, the daughter of Dave Coyne.[6]
