About Dhurringile
Dhurringile is a locality in the City of Greater Shepparton in northern Victoria, about 10 kilometres north of Murchison and east of the Waranga Basin reservoir. It is centred on Dhurringile Mansion, a heritage-listed Italianate country house built in 1876-77 for pastoralist James Winter. During the Second World War the estate served as an internment camp (1939-40) and then a prisoner-of-war camp (1941-45). From 1951 it operated as a training farm for migrant boys before becoming HM Prison Dhurringile in 1965, which closed in 2024.
