Whiteheads Creek is district to the east of the Seymour township from Telegraph road to the Top of Wagg’s Range and between the top of Cherry Tree Range and roughly, the left bank  of Hughes Creek. This includes Whiteheads Creek, Bucklands Creek, and Back Creek.Telegrapgh Road was the stock route and original coach route to Sydney through the district.

In 1855 the first land in this section of the shire to be alienated from the Crown, apart from any squatting pre-emptive right, was parcels of five country lots put up for auction at the upset price 1 pound per acre.  T.W. Pinniger who was the surveyor purchased more than half of the Land.

These blocks of land covered the area from the Racecourse Reserve to beyond “Fairholm” fronting Kobyboyn Rd and bounded on the northern side by Whiteheads Creek itself. Original selectors at Whiteheads Creek were P. Dempsey, N & J Wall, W. Roberts, C.A Wales, J Kennedy, G. Pout. H.Duell, G. Graham,  Orme, Wallis, Guild, Chadwick, Chittick, Knapsey, Other families that came a little later were Halpin, Coulson and Freeman. There are descendants of these families still farming and living on original selections today

In the latter part of the 1800 and early 1900 hundreds Whiteheads Creek had a Church, a Hall, Post office, School, and Wine Shanty, these services were all situated on the Highlands Road near Hall Lane with the exception of the wine shanty which now has its own lane named in its honour. With the introduction of motor vehicles allowing people to move about more freely those public facilities faded e.g. the School closed 1942, Post Office(A note inside a Presbyterian Church’s Presbytry of Seymour minute book No 255 indicates that the Post Office was closed by 1931) The Presbyterian Church closed in 1946  Whiteheads Creek  Hall was sold and shifted in August 1940 and the Wine Shanty closed early1900.

In 1930’s the local farmers of the district banded together to have a telephone system installed. Effectively they had to pay for the poles and wire to be installed. The cost to each landowner was around  200 Hundred Pound a considerable outlay for the times just highlighting the value they placed on being able to communicate with each other and the outside world. A loan scheme was initiated to enable the families to pay the money off over time

In 2022 situated 9 kilometers from Seymour on Kobyboyn Road  is the Whiteheads Creek/ Tarcombe Fire Station housing the firebrigade tanker and equipment. Whiteheads Creek Community Hall is next to the Fire station, here community events are held for our district.
