Currency Creek is located between the mouth of the Finniss River and Currency Creek. By 1885 Currency Creek had just 13 houses, 130 residents and a few public buildings. A church and school were built and later closed and the town Institute was built in 1913. Goolwa became the more popular town as Currency Creek went into decline
