Dover Heights

Dover Heights is an established residential area. The Dover Heights Precinct is bounded by the Pacific Ocean, Portland Street, Lancaster Road, Murriverie Road and Hardy St. Please note boundary lines run through the middle of the street. Dover Heights Precinct is part of Hunter Ward.

Dover Heights is named after Dover Road, which was thought to be named after the English white cliffs of Dover.

Settlement of the area dates from the 1830s, with land used mainly for market gardens. Population was minimal until the 1860s, with more substantial growth from the 1880s. Expansion continued into the early 1900s and then resumed in the post-war years. The population has been relatively stable since the early 1990s, a result of little change in dwelling stock and the average number of persons living in each dwelling.

Major features of the area include Dudley Page Reserve, Rodney Reserve, the Waverley Cliff Walk, Hugh Bamford Reserve and Kesser Torah College.
