About Tipton
Tipton is a rural locality in the Toowoomba Region of Queensland, located about 79 kilometres west of Toowoomba and 38 kilometres south of Dalby on the Dalby to Cecil Plains Road. Named after a village in Staffordshire, England, the landscape features open Darling Downs country at 347 metres elevation with fertile black clay soils. The North Branch of the Condamine River flows through the locality, supporting predominantly crop growing with some grazing. Part of the Surat Cumulative Management Area, traditional farming coexists with coal seam gas exploration.
