Balmain & Leichhardt : Birchgrove

No one has rated this yet.

Rate it

This area has some lovely Colonial homes, a small shopping village on Rowntree Street and Birchgrove Park, the site of Australia’s first Rugby League match in 1908. The northern tip of Birchgrove is known as Yurulbin Point, formerly called Long Nose Point, which, along with Manns Point, forms the mouth of the Parramatta River. Yurulbin Park has spectacular views of the Harbour Bridge, and an interpretation board near the ferry wharf provides interesting details on the area’s Aboriginal heritage.
