Information About Greenwich
Greenwich, a suburb on Sydney’s Lower North Shore in New South Wales, is located 7 kilometres northwest of Sydney’s central business district, within the Municipality of Lane Cove. This suburb sits on a peninsula at the entrance of the Lane Cove River, offering harbor views, small pockets of bush land, and amenities like shops, restaurants, cafes, and a harbour swimming pool with a shark net.
The suburb’s name hails from Greenwich in London, inspired by the Parramatta River’s nickname as the ‘Thames of the Antipodes,’ alongside nearby suburbs named after other Thames locations such as Putney and Woolwich.
Initially inhabited by the Cammeraygal clan of the Dharug-speaking Eora Nation, who lived along the harbor and traded locally, the area saw European exploration starting in 1788 with Lieutenant Henry Ball. Land grants began in 1794, evolving into industrial development by the 1830s. Aboriginal presence dwindled by the 1860s due to disease and displacement.
Early land grants were given to Samuel Lightfoot in 1794 and William Gore in 1813, the latter developing a road that became Greenwich Road. By the 1830s, George Green and his father Amaziah acquired land, fostering a shipbuilding industry. In 1840, the name “Greenwich” emerged as Green subdivided his land.
Built in 1836 by George Green, Greenwich House, a Georgian sandstone residence, still stands today. The house, later owned by Gother Kerr Mann, whose family held it until 1949, lent its name to Manns Point, the eastern tip of Greenwich.
By the 1880s, Greenwich Point housed a post office, general store, and school, while upper Greenwich developed more slowly. Improved roads eventually spurred suburban growth. From the 1880s to the 1940s, several dairies operated in Greenwich, including Anderson’s and Hogan’s, the latter having 300 cows at its peak.
Light industry thrived along Greenwich’s foreshore, with shipbuilding, brickmaking, quarrying, and bitumen manufacturing. Shell established a petroleum terminal at Gore Bay in 1901, which expanded significantly over time.
Greenwich was home to the northern portal of Sydney’s first tunnel under the harbor, built between 1913 and 1924 for electricity transmission. The Sydney Harbour railway electricity tunnel, excavated primarily by hand, was abandoned in 1969.
Heritage sites in Greenwich include Pallister at 95 River Road, Greenwich Infants School, and the Sydney Harbour railway electricity tunnel. Greenwich Public School, opened in 1876 and now spanning two campuses, has notable alumni, including the children of former Prime Minister John Howard.
Transport options include ferry services from Greenwich Point and Lane Cove River wharves, bus routes to North Sydney and on the Pacific Highway, with nearby train stations at Wollstonecraft and St Leonards.
The Greenwich Village Games, held every four years, and the longstanding Greenwich Sports Club, offering soccer and netball programs, are community highlights. The suburb is also home to sailing clubs and a Scout Hall.
In the 2021 census, Greenwich had 5,469 residents, with 62.7% born in Australia. The median weekly household income was $2,946, and the workforce largely comprised professionals and managers. Religious affiliations were diverse, with significant numbers identifying as having no religion, Catholic, or Anglican.
Politically, Greenwich is part of the federal division of North Sydney, represented by independent Kylea Tink, and the NSW state electorate of Lane Cove, held by Anthony Roberts of the Liberal Party.
Notable residents have included artist Norman Hetherington, journalist Antonia Kidman, broadcaster Andrew Olle, and author Ruth Park.
