Description of Childers
From
Brisbane
GPO drive 311 km on the Bruce Highway to the National Trust town of Childers. The township is set on top of rolling hills of red soil framed by green fields of sugar cane. In 1902 a disastrous fire destroyed much of Childers but the subsequent rebuilding has given us the amazing variety of architectural styles still largely intact today. Take a stroll through the cool Leopard tree lined streets.Childers is a town of 5,000 residents in
Queensland
