History

[edit]

Berrilee is believed to be derived from an Aboriginal word 'Buraillee' possibly having something to do with mouthorfood.[2]

Demographics

[edit]

According to the 2021 census, there were 212 people in Berrilee. 75.0% of people were born in Australia and 84.0% of people only spoke English at home.[1]

Local area

[edit]

Berrilee is a small town, without any "stores", to speak. There is one small store near Berowra Waters and another in Arcadia. There was a primary school, but due to a lack of students (there were less than seven), it closed down in 1957.[3] It re-opened shortly after but closed down and the property was sold in 2005.[4]
