The Danberrin Area comprises a large area of mostly rural properties and State government land, encompassing approximately 14, 647 hectares. The area comprises arable land used for wheat-farming, as well as paddocks, native bushland, granite outcrops, revegetated areas and salt lake system. Danberrin Road runs in a north-south fashion through the centre of the place. The majority of properties are fenced, and include buildings (residences, sheds) and other farming landscape features such as dams, water tanks and windmills. The Danberrin Hill Reserve, located just over a kilometre from Danberrin Road, is well-known for its wildflowers. The area has been identified within the Shire of Nungarin’s Municipal Inventory as representing the centre of the Civil Service Land Settlement Scheme which settled former government employees in the Wheatbelt to help stimulate the wheat-growing industry in Western Australia. A memorial to the Civil Service settlers is located on Danberrin Hill within the Reserve.
