Patrick is a former rural locality in the Barcaldine Region, Queensland, Australia.[2] In the 2016 census, Patrick had a population of 26 people.[1]
On 22 November 2019, the Queensland Government decided to amalgamate the localities in the Barcaldine Region, resulting in five expanded localities based on the larger towns: Alpha, Aramac, Barcaldine, Jericho and Muttaburra. Patrick was incorporated into Barcaldine.[3][4][5]
The Landsborough Highway passes through the location from the north (Barcaldine) to the south (Home Creek).[6]
The Alice River forms the western boundary of the locality. Patrick Creek flows through the locality from east (Narbethong) to west, where it becomes a tributary of the Alice River.[6]
