Fairfield Suburb Overview

Fairfield is a western suburb of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Fairfield is located 29 kilometres west of the Sydney central business district and is the administrative centre for the local government area of the City of Fairfield and is also partly in the local government area of the City of Holroyd.

Fairfield is one of the most multicultural and culturally diverse cities in Australia, with more than half of the residents having been born overseas, mostly in non-English speaking countries. The majority of residents speak a language other than English at home, the most common being Vietnamese, Arabic, Aramaic , Cantonese and Spanish.

Aboriginal people from the Cabrogal tribe and the Gandangara tribe, have lived in the area for over 30,000 years.

The earliest recorded visit to the Fairfield District by Europeans is described in William Bradley’s Journal where he noted an expedition from Rose Hill to Prospect Creek to determine whether Prospect Creek led to Botany Bay.

Governor Phillip left Rose Hill on 7 October 1789, returning on the 10th. Bradley described a place on the Creek where the water changed from fresh to salt with a drop of 4 feet . The location was “Rocky Bridge” in present-day Fairfield Park, directly opposite Oakdene Park. The presence of salt water confirmed Prospect Creek’s connection to the sea. Travelling downstream on the western bank of the Creek, the party were hampered from continuing by the junction of Orphan School and Prospect Creeks. At this site Bradley recorded a fight between a kangaroo and one of the party’s greyhounds in the Creek, which required one of the party to enter the water to save the dog. That location is near the present-day bend of Riverview Road, Fairfield.

Frenchman Gabriel Louis Marie Huon de Kerrileau, a soldier in the NSW Corps arrived in the colony in 1794, per the ‘Surprise’, having fled France during the French Revolution and enlisted in the NSW Corps in London. In 1800 he married Louisa Le Sage at St John’s, Parramatta, to satisfy the Colonial law. In 1807 he received a grant of 100 acres in the centre of Fairfield, which he named ‘Castel Paul’. Huon de Kerrileau received additional grants of land. further afield, between 1807 and 1825, including 400 acres at Narellan from Governor Macquarie in 1810. By 1814 ‘Castel Paul’ had been combined, by subsequent owners, with several similarly sized grants to form a largely uncleared 700 acres estate.

The free settler John Horsley, per ‘Broxbornebury’, 1814, purchased the estate in that year and named it ‘Mark Lodge’, after family properties in Essex, England. The Horsley family lived at ‘Mark Lodge’ until 1840, almost six years after John Horsley’s death. The next owner was Dr William Brand, who used ‘Mark Lodge’ as a country retreat until about 1860. Horsley, a Magistrate and Coroner at Liverpool , and his large family were some of the pioneers of European settlement in the Fairfield District.

Later, a Colonial Treasurer, Thomas Ware Smart bought the estate and in the 1860s built the mansion, ‘Fairfield House’.

Fairfield railway station was opened in 1856 and has the oldest surviving railway building in New South Wales. Development began in the mid 19th century supported by railway construction in 1856. At the turn of the century the area had a population of 2,500 people and with fertile soils, produced crops for distribution in Sydney. Electricity was connected in 1921. A private railway existed from Fairfield station to the blue metal quarry at Widemere between 1924 and 1945.

Rapid population increase after World War II saw the settlement of many ex-service men and European migrants. Large scale Housing Commission development in the 1950s swelled the population to 38,000. By 1979, the population had reached 120,000 and the City was becoming one of the larger Local Government Areas in New South Wales.
