Cranbrook is a locality and small rural community in the local government area of Glamorgan-Spring Bay, in the Central east coast region of Tasmania. It is located about 20 kilometres (12 mi) north of the town of Swansea.[2] The 2016 census determined a population of 67 for the state suburb of Cranbrook.[1]
The locality name is believed to be derived from a town in southern England, probably Cranbrook, Kent. That name was derived from Old English words for “a marsh (or brook) of cranes”.[3]

The region produces quality Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling's and other grape varieties, noting another 10 vineyards under development.
