The town was established by Edward Burton Gleeson in 1842. Gleeson named the location after his ancestral home of County Clare in Ireland. In 1919 a railway was built between Riverton and Clare and lasted until 1974. The tracks of the railway were removed in 1980 after damage caused by the infamous Ash Wednesday Fires.
If visiting the town of Clare between April 19 - 22 make sure to attend the Romeria del Rocio Spanish Festival. If visiting in November, take a look at the Spring Garden festival.
