Geography[edit]

The Southern railway line marks a small section of the northwest boundary of Vale View. The New England Highway is aligned with the southeast boundary.[3]

Shepperd is a neighbourhood (27°39′00S 151°53′00E / 27.65°S 151.8833°E / -27.65; 151.8833 (Shepperd)) around the former Shepperd railway station on the Southern railway line (27°38′36S 151°52′46E / 27.6432°S 151.8794°E / -27.6432; 151.8794 (Shepperd railway station)).[4][5]

There is an area of rural residential development in the north of the locality on the southern slope of Mount Shepperd. The rest of the locality is used for a mixture of cropping and grazing on native vegetation.[3]

The name Shepperd is a railway station name, assigned by the Queensland Railways Department on 29 April 1915. The name was suggested by the Drayton Shire Council after Samuel Shepperd, the manager of Glengallan pastoral property.[4]

In December 1930, tenders were called to relocate the Pickanjinnie school building to Vale View.[6] Vale View State School opened on 2 March 1931.[7]
