Bounded on the north by the Bynoe Harbour, the hundred was one of the first 13 hundreds gazetted in the territory in 1871, and was named after Sir William Milne, a Glasgow-born politician of South Australia. Milne carried a bill in the council authorising the construction of the Australian Overland Telegraph Line from Adelaide to Darwin.
