Norley is a locality in the Shire of Bulloo, Queensland, Australia.
Norley is part of the Channel Country, a network of interconnecting creeks and rivers that are normally dry except during seasonal flooding. The land is used for low density cattle grazing.
The Bundeena Road enters the locality from the west and exits to the south to neighbouring Thargomindah. The Quilpie Thargomindah Road enters the locality from the north-east and exists to the south to Thargomindah.
The locality of Norley takes its name from its county and parish of the same name. The county name takes its name in turn from the Norley pastoral station.
