Kintore is an abandoned town in Western Australia located 46 km north-west of Kalgoorlie along the Coolgardie North Road in the Goldfields-Esperance region of Western Australia.
During the late 1890s gold was discovered in the area and following a rapid growth in population the local progress committee petitioned for the town to be declared and the town was gazetted in 1897.
By 1898 the population of the town was 240 (200 males and 40 females).
