AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Home of the Bidjigal people, Hurstville became a timber felling area for the newly established town of Sydney in the early 1800's. The township rapidly grew into a farming community and once the railway arrived in 1884, its urban development took off.

'Hurstville is now one of eight regional centres within metropolitan Sydney. We are located 15 kilometers to the south west of the CBD. Our city is close to two airports, two major sea ports and traversed by main highways. Covering an area of 2,460 hectares, the community of over 70,000 residents has a rich cultural dive arersity with major non-English speaking groups including Chinese, Macedonian and Greek.'
