Narran County is one of the 141 cadastral divisions of New South Wales. It is bounded by the Culgoa River on the west, the Narran River in the east, the Queensland border in the north, and the Barwon River in the south. It includes Goodooga and the area to the north of Brewarrina.
A third river runs thought Narran County - the Bokhara River with Goodooga being on its eastern bank. The three rivers - the Narran, the Bokhara, and the Culgoa - are branches of the Balonne River and all three enter the Barwon River separately. The confluence of the Culgoa and the Barwon rivers is the start of the Darling River.
Narran is believed to be derived from a local Aboriginal word.[1]
