Bonney Flat, previously "Bonney's Flat", is geographic location in South Australia west of Mount Pleasant, south of Mount Crawford and north of Birdwood (prev. Blumberg).[1] Early farmers in this area include the Hannaford family.

Not to be confused with Bonney Flat Creek, a few km west of Balhannah, South Australia, some 30 kilometres (19 mi) to the south and west, where the Camac family were prominent settlers. Confusingly, this is the site of the Bonney Flat Cemetery. Note that the entry for Bonney Flat in the Manning index of South Australian placenames refers to this location, which once shared the same name.
