Rocklands Station is a pastoral lease that operates as a cattle station along the border of the Northern Territory and Queensland in the Barkly Tableland region. The station was established in 1864 by brothers James and George Sutherland.[1]
It is situated about 10 kilometres (6 mi) north of Camooweal and 120 kilometres (75 mi) north east of Alpurrurulam. The property shares a boundary with Adder and Avon Downs Station to the west, Alexandria Station to the north and Austral Downs to the south.[2] The Herbert River flows through the middle of the property.[1] The Barkly Highway runs through the southern end of the property.[2]
