History [ edit ]
The locality's name is derived from Irvingdale pastoral run established in the 1840s and was located east of Dalby and north of Mount Irving . It is thought that the Irving name refers to pastoralist Clark Irving , who represented the Darling Downs in the New South Wales Legislative Assembly prior to the separation.[2] [3] [7]
