## History

The large Tallygaroopna [station](/source/Station_(Australian_agriculture)) was established in the 1840s by Edward Khull and two years later was sold to Sherbourne Sheppard, who later lent his name to the nearby city of [Shepparton](/source/Shepparton%2C_Victoria). The station was broken up for closer settlement in the 1870s,[3] the Post Office opening on 7 December 1875. The Tallygaroopna Railway Station Post Office opened on 17 October 1881, and was later renamed as Tallygaroopna and Tallygaroopna renamed as Tallygaroopna West.[4]

The [local railway station](/source/Tallygaroopna_railway_station%2C_Victoria) was opened on the [Goulburn Valley railway](/source/Goulburn_Valley_railway_line%2C_Victoria) in 1881,[5] but does not see any passenger or freight services.

Tallygaroopna Primary School is located on Victoria Street. The local kindergarten is located opposite the school.

The town is also home to a bowling green and golf course.
