Cornwall is a rural locality in the Maranoa Region, Queensland, Australia.[2] In the 2021 census, Cornwall had a population of 13 people.[1]
The Great Dividing Range enters the locality from the west (Kilmorey Falls), run across the north of the locality, exiting to the north-east (Gunnewin). This splits the locality across two drainage basins with most of the locality (to the south of the range) being within the Murray Darling basin, specifically within the catchment of the Balonne River, while the northern strip of the locality is within the North East Coast drainage basin, specifically within the catchment of the Fitzroy River.[3]
The land use is predominantly grazing on native vegetation with some small areas of crop growing.[4]
