Cookardinia is a small and almost non-existent village 24km east of Henty. Its surrounding area has an approximate population of 283 persons. The place name Cookardinia is derived from the local Aboriginal word meaning “the place of the giant kingfisher” – probably a reference to the Kookaburra and hence the phonetic similarity of the start of each word. Only several small buildings remain, including the old ‘Buckaringa’ woolshed on the Cookardinia – Henty road and the Memorial Hall built in 1925. On the intersection of the Henty, Culcairn and Holbrook roads can be seen the (rapidly deteriorating) ruins of the Squatter’s Arms Inn which was built in 1848.
