I would guess that they could be:
Austinville - place=hamlet
Springbrook - place=village
+1 - both as nodes?
Springbrook would be centred on the pub or store ... or halfway between the two.
Austinville ... centred on the community hall.

I cannot imagine houses that are several kilometers away being part of a
hamlet, in a settlement sense. Can you give an example please, maybe this
can occur in very low density areas?
I mentioned these the other week in discussions about place=locality.
https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/4313816641 is the area known as
Austinville, which is spread out over ~20 sq km along Austinville Rd &
surrounding area, & has a population of ~360. There is no "town centre" as
such - no shop, no service station, no pub, no church which are the usual
defining features. The only similar thing is the Community Hall. The area
is currently listed in OSM as place=locality, should it be a hamlet, either
as a node or an area?
Springbrook
https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/4316622215#map=15/-28.2069/153.2700 has
a population of ~600 & is the plateau on top of Springbrook Mountain. It
has a general store, State (Primary) School, a pub & a few cafes, but, once
again, no real "centre". It's also a place=locality, so should it be a
hamlet?
Thanks
Graeme
