Wuraming is a rural locality located in the Shire of Boddington in the Peel Region of Western Australia. The locality is almost completely forested except for a section in the north-east where parts of the Boddington Gold Mine operation are located.[3][4]
The Shire of Boddington and the locality of Wuraming are located on the traditional land of the Wiilman people of the Noongar nation.[5][6][7]
Wuraming was a siding on the Dwellingup to Boddington section of the Pinjarra to Narrogin railway until the line closed in 1968, with the line running north of the current Pinjarra-Williams Road.[8]
