Rocky Gully is a small town in the Great Southern region of Western Australia.
The town is located along the Muirs Highway, about 8 kilometres (5 mi) from the Kent River.
A site was selected for a town when land in the area was sub-divided in the 1930s. By 1951 a small community was established as part of the War Service land settlement scheme and the townsite was gazetted.[1]
