Suburb of Greater Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia
Garden Suburb is a small semi-rural community in the City of Lake Macquarie local government area in the Greater Newcastle area in the state of New South Wales , Australia. It is located 2 kilometres East of Cardiff .
History
[ edit ]
The Aboriginal people in this area, the Awabakal , were the first people of this land.[2]
The first land grant was to James Peatie in August 1872. The street Peaties Road now carries his name.[3]
Another land grant was given to John Cherry in March 1876.[3]
The first subdivision occurred in 1918, encompassing Prospect Road, Park Road and Marshall Street. This appears to be the time the area was given the name 'Garden Suburb'.[3]
A post office opened in 1956 and the local primary school opened in 1958.[3]
The Forest Hills Estate was constructed between 1999 and 2005 in the South. The streets were named with a theme of flora.[citation needed
The town had a post office and a convenience store, however these closed in 1987 and 2007, respectively.[citation needed
Geography
[ edit ]
The town is surrounded by bushland, and can only be accessed from Myall Road. The area is hilly, with its highest point at 32°56′40 ″S 151°40′53 ″E / 32.94444°S 151.68139°E / -32.94444; 151.68139 [4]
Three creeks flow through the area:
Winding Creek : Starts near Hillsborough and flows into Cockle Creek, then into Lake Macquarie.[4]
Tickhole Creek : Starts near Newcastle Bypass and flows into Winding Creek.
Garden Suburb Creek : Starts from dam in Campbell Reserve and flows into Tickhole Creek.
Development Proposal
[ edit ]
Landcom Corporation proposed a 96-lot development in 2013, in the bushland near Myall Road. After initial objections, the project was shelved for several years.[5]
In 2020, the project was fast-tracked after the coronavirus pandemic , and approved in December 2020. The development was scaled back to 66-lots in January.[6]
