The Hundred of Mount Muirhead is a cadastral division of the County of Grey in southeastern South Australia. It was named on 15 July 1869 for the geographical feature of the same name which, in turn, was named by Charles Bonney for one of his stockmen.[1][2]
Two townships lie within the hundred—Millicent and Hatherleigh along with the localities of Sebastopol and Rocky Camp. Parts of Rendelsham, Furner, Canunda and Mount Burr localities also overlap the hundred. The hundred includes the northern part of Canunda National Park.
