There are no towns within the hundred boundaries. The majority is taken up by the bounded localities of Ninnes and Thomas Plain. The bounded localities of Willamulka, Alford, Bute and Paskeville overlap the northwestern and southern boundaries.
The hundred was named for the Ninnes Plain which in turn was named after the local landowner, Thomas Ninnes.
