It is important for its association with the early exploration of the area and later for the association with the establishment of the pastoral and agricultural industry in the district.
Boyerine Creek rises from the south of the Woodanilling townsite from the region of Martling Hill between Marracoonda and Moojebing and flows into the southern end of Norring Lake. The present line of the Great Southern Highway and Railway follow its northerly course until it turns west at Boyerine and lies to the north of Watson Road. It is joined just south of the Woodanilling townsite by the NW flowing Moojebing Creek. It is a winter flowing watercourse with some significant pools including the Round, Ngeatalling, Bintamilling, Boyerine, Noomberring and Dolapin Pools. A feature of the watercourse is the dense stand of native timber featuring Casuarina obesa. There is a small reserve with access to it on the south side of the bridge.
Fresh water pools in the creek also were important factors in the siting of infrastructure for the building of the Great Southern Railway. The name 'Boyerine' is derived from the Aboriginal culture with Boy pertaining to place of rocks or stone. To the south west of Boyerine Pool are numerous granite hills.
