Kholo

Kholo is a rural locality at the far west of the Brisbane City Council's municipal area, 26 km south-west of central Brisbane. It is bordered on the west and south by the Brisbane River, on the north by Lake Manchester, and on the east by Mount Crosby. Until 2000 it was part of the City of Ipswich.

Kholo is an old place name. Hiscock's Queensland Atlas (1878) shows Kholo post office, roughly in the vicinity of Kholo Road, north of the Kholo bridge. The origin of the name is apparently unrecorded.
