Bellbird Park
Bellbird Park, a suburb of Ipswich, is 13 km east of central Ipswich. It is immediately south of Goodna and east of Redbank Plains. The area was regarded as part of the Goodna hinterland, accommodating dirt tracks for access to local farms and a back road through Redbank to Ipswich. Development began after the 1974 floods. Until the late 1980s, with a few early subdivisions, it was still an outlying area of Goodna. The area was named by the developers in the mid-1970s after bellbirds had been heard along Woogaroo Creek.
