Monmouth is one of Tasmania’s twenty land districts. It lies in the south-east of the state, mostly east of the River Derwent, and was proclaimed as a county in 1836.
It is bounded by the River Derwent to the south, the Clyde River to the west and part of the Jordan River to the north, reaching from the eastern shore of Hobart up into the Midlands.
Oatlands and Bothwell are the historic inland towns; Bridgewater and the eastern-shore suburbs sit closer to Hobart.
