Hungerford is a tiny, tiny SW Qld town on the Qld/NSW border. The pub seems to be the mainstay of the community and has been in use as such since the days of Cobb & Co. 
It is also one of the places where you cross the dog or dingo fence, built in the 1880's to restrict dingoes entering the area where sheep are grazing. The fence is over 5,000km long and stretches across Qld and SA ending at the Great Australian Bight. At Hungerford you need to open and close the gate when travelling to/from Queensland or NSW.
In this part of SW Queensland is the Currawinya National Park, dry sandy plains, mulga scrub/trees and the Paroo River, it was originally a pastoral lease - the huge deserted farm woolshed is still there in the park, as are some of the other farm buildings. The park has a 25sq km Bilby enclosure to protect and preserve the Bilby, but access to this is not available to the public. Probably a good thing really! Camped here on one of the waterholes.
