Vaucluse / Diamond Bay
Vaucluse is an established residential area. The Vaucluse / Diamond Bay Precinct is bounded by Old South Head Rd, Lancaster Rd, the Pacific Ocean and the southern edge of Christison Park. Please note boundary lines run through the middle of the street. Vaucluse / Diamond Bay Precinct is part of Hunter Ward.
Settlement of the area dates from the early 1800s, although population was minimal until the late 1800s. Land was used mainly for farming and fishing. Rapid growth took place during the 1880s and 1890s, continuing through to the early 1900s. Significant development occurred during the 1950s. The population has fluctuated slightly since the early 1990s.
Major features of the area include Diamond Bay Reserve, Clarke Reserve and South Head Cemetery.
