Template talk:Sydney Parramatta suburbs

Latest comment: 17 years ago by Breno

Why is Dundas West on this template? To my knowledge there is no such suburb. I live in what is to my knowledge one of the western most parts of Dundas and I have never heard this term. Also I could not find Dundas West as a name on Geographical Names Register (GNR) of NSW

While looking I also check some other suburbs I have not heard of (though am not as familar with. While Granville North, May Villa, Parramatta East and Blaxcell appear to be legit as either suburbs or localities; I also could find no reference to East Granville, Dellwood, North Chester Hill nor West Parramatta on GNR and would suggest these be deleted. - Waza 23:59, 31 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

  • As there has been no comments I have deleted East Granville, Dellwood, North Chester Hill and Dundas West
  • I would suggest we also delete the following Neighbourhoods as they are not actually Suburbs (A bounded area within the landscape that has an 'Urban' Character) or Localities:
Blaxcell - A neighbourhood about 4 km S by E of Parramatta and about 3 km NW of Berala. (Name officially assigned in 1977)
Parramatta East - A neighbourhood about 4 km W of Ermington and about 4 km S of North Rocks. (Decision defered on approving this name in 1992)
Granville North - A neighbourhood about 2 km SW by W of Rydalmere and about 4 km NNW of Lidcombe. (Decision defered on approving this name in 1992)
  • Also while a locality May Villa has not bee approved by GNB. As I live slap bang where the description of this proposed locality is located and have never heard the word I think it should be deleted until there is some evidence it does exist.
May Villa - A locality about 4 km NW of Ermington and about 4 km SSW of Beecroft. (Decision defered on approving this name in 1992)
  • Also does Parramatta Park, while it is a large important and impressive park, really deserve a separate entry here? It has a section under the main Parramatta article.

I know the convo went dead on this one but should locations be included at all? For example, Model Farms is a locality, not a suburb. --Breno talk 11:46, 15 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
