Yerilla is an abandoned goldfields townsite located 830 km east north east of Perth, 105 km east north east of Menzies and 37 kms south east of Kookynie.
Gold was discovered in the area in the mid 1890's, and the miners soon formed a progress committee, and in 1896 requested the declaration of a townsite. The townsite was gazetted in November 1896.
