Map of Leigh Creek, SA 5731

Leigh Creek is a former coal-mining town in eastern central South Australia. At the 2016 census, Leigh Creek had a population of 245, a 55% decrease from 550 in the previous census in 2011.

Situated to the west of the northern Flinders Ranges, the current town is 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) further south than the original town—it was moved to allow for the expansion of the mine and the establishment of the Leigh Creek Retention Dam. Construction of the new town commenced in 1979, by 1980 the first home was occupied, and the old town was fully relocated and inundated by 1982. As a result, most facilities and buildings in the town are only a little over thirty years old, and with relatively modern designs.

The mine and associated railway station are named Telford. It is located on the Marree railway line.
