Kempton suburb profile

Kempton is a small rural township in Tasmania's southern Midlands, sited on the Midland Highway between Hobart and Oatlands. It functions as a local service centre for surrounding grazing country, with a compact main street of older buildings, a few shops and a pub that together create a village atmosphere. Housing includes heritage cottages and modest family homes close to the town, with larger farms and lifestyle blocks on the outskirts. The landscape is pastoral, with rolling grazing land and nearby bush, and the highway gives a straightforward road link to the state capital and central Tasmania.
