Llewellyn, Tasmania is a small village in Somerset Land District, on the road from Campbell Town, Tasmania to the eastern coast,near the South Esk River. Llewellyn is often alternatively referred to as Stony Creek, a small tributary of the South Esk. Stony Creek was mentioned in colonial times in reference to the eponymous Tasmanian Aboriginal tribe (the Tyerrernotepanner clan) that still bears this name. Llewellyn first appears in early newspapers in 1845 as both being surveyed as a township and then also as a site of a murder.
