HARRIS PARK

Harris Park is an established residential area, with a commercial area near the railway station. Harris Park is bounded by Clay Cliff Creek, Parkes Street and Hassall Street in the north, Alfred Street, Weston Street and Good Street in the east, A'Beckett Creek in the south and the railway line in the west. Part of the suburb of Harris Park is located in Holroyd City.

Settlement of the area dates from the early 1800s, with land used mainly for farming. Population was minimal until the 1870s, with growth continuing into the early 1900s. The most significant development occurred in the post-war years, particularly during the 1950s. The population has increased slightly since the early 1990s, a result of new dwellings being added to the area.

Major features of the area include Rosella Park and two schools.
