History


Indigenous peoples

The locality of Pitt Town was originally the home of the
Darug people The Dharug or Darug people, formerly known as the Broken Bay tribe, are an Aboriginal Australian people, who share strong ties of kinship and, in pre-colonial times, lived as skilled hunters in family groups or clans, scattered throughout much ...
for over 40,000 years. The Darug people occupied a large area of the Western Sydney basin across numerous groups. The area now known as Pitt Town and Pitt Town Bottoms was known to the Indigenous people as Bardo Narang (also referred to as Barden Narang and Bardenarang), which means "little water", specifically referring to the freshwater creek which runs northwards from Pitt Town Lagoon to the Hawkesbury River. Friendship Bridge traverses Bardenarang Creek and is in the approximate location where in 1791, Governor
Arthur Phillip Admiral Arthur Phillip (11 October 1738 – 31 August 1814) was a British Royal Navy officer who served as the first governor of the Colony of New South Wales. Phillip was educated at Greenwich Hospital School from June 1751 unti ...
met with local Indigenous leaders who offered Phillip gifts as a gesture of goodwill and friendship.


Settlement

European settlement in Pitt Town began from 1791 when Governor Arthur Phillip camped in the area, with a number of land grants being given in the following year along the river front in what is now known as Pitt Town Bottoms. Some of the earliest land holders included James Ruse. Pitt Town is one of the five "

who is responsible for initially planning the colonisation of New South Wales as a penal settlement. After the townships were christened by Lachlan Macquarie at a dinner in December 1810 at Government House, Windsor, a site for a village was laid out in early 1811 but developed very slowly, largely because of the distance from the river front and the settled farms. Consequently, Governor Macquarie returned to the area and together with Surveyor James Meehan, resurveyed the area to mark out a new location for the township. In October 1815, Macquarie issued orders via the Sydney Gazette that the town was to be relocated to its present location, with land grants in the new (present) township being given to the settlers from November 1815. By 1841 there were only 36 houses in the town, still largely due to its location being too far from the rich river flats and the consequent long daily trek for farmers to their holdings. The street names of Pitt Town bear testament to the 1808 British Cabinet, including Eldon, Grenville, Bathurst, Liverpool, Buckingham,

, and Chandos Streets. Chandos Street was later renamed Church Street. Electricity first came to Pitt Town in 1935, with the township being connected to town water supply in the early 1940s as evidenced by the large water tower that stood in Hall Street until 2019 when it was decommissioned and demolished by Sydney Water. Pitt Town was the site of the first use of agricultural irrigation in Australia, when Pitt Town pioneer Lawrence May trialled its use to irrigate his crops. May also established the first windmill in Pitt Town for the production of flour. Pitt Town has also had an important relationship to the Hawkesbury River, being the site of John Grono's large boatbuilding enterprise in the early 19th century and had a ferry service running from the northern end of the township to Wilberforce which was taken over by the Presbyterian Church and remained in service until the 1920s. The original punt bell survives in the Hawkesbury Regional Museum at Windsor. For much of the 19th century, Pitt Town was an isolated rural community, surrounded by an agricultural landscape, producing large quantities of maize, grain and corn. By the 20th century, much of the agricultural produce was in citrus (oranges). However, with the rise in importation of citrus from the global market, demand for the local market gradually dwindled and many citrus growers bulldozed their groves. Since 2010, the landscape has been transitioning to urban residential. In 1987, the Pitt Town Shopping Centre was constructed with the Bird in Hand Inn being converted to a public inn. For most of the 20th Century, it served as a general store, known as Millers Store. It was originally built opposite the current site in 1825 but was demolished and the present building built in the mid-1840s. The shopping village in Eldon Street was extended along Bathurst Street in 2006. Pitt Town has also been the site of numerous interesting as well as controversial development and infrastructure proposals. During the 1940s, to bolster Australia's defence in the War in the Pacific, it was necessary to accommodate for the additional aircraft. An ancillary runway to the Richmond RAAF base was built in what is today known as 'Airstrip Road'. It was here that decoy aircraft complete with decoy buildings and vegetable gardens were installed, while the real aircraft was concealed beneath camouflage nets. Following the end of World War II in 1945, the Pitt Town Airstrip was converted for use as a race track by James Hardie, where the Ferrodo disc brakes were trialled. This lasted until the mid 1960s. During the late 1980s, Pitt Town had been identified as the potential site of Sydney's second international airport, with the proposed runways (shown on official reports at the time), running directly through the present village area. Had the proposal succeeded, Pitt Town would have been eradicated from existence. By the end of the 1980s, a proposal had been made to convert the nearby former Army training camp at Scheyville to a high-security prison. The various controversial proposals ultimately led to the formation of the Pitt Town Preservation Society, who advocated for the protection and promotion of the historical significance of Pitt Town, producing a periodical to their subscribers called 'The Crier'. 1915 marked the 100th anniversary of the re-establishment of Pitt Town and 2015 marked the bicentenary. As part of the 2010 bicentenary of the Macquarie Towns, a parade was held along Bathurst Street.

Education

Pitt Town Public School is on Buckingham Street and is an Australian primary school. It is the fourth schoolhouse in Pitt Town. The first and original schoolhouse was established around 1814 and was situated along present-day Old Pitt Town Road, near the current Church of England burial ground. Originally of Anglican denomination , the first schoolhouse was abandoned in 1820, when the Colonial Government purchased a large weatherboard house, converting it into a temporary chapel and schoolhouse, becoming the second schoolhouse. In 1827, the third schoolhouse was built, which was of brick construction and situated on land reserved for education and a church. It would become the future site of Pitt Town Anglican Church (1857–1858). In 1876, a new schoolhouse was being built around the corner in Buckingham Street as the first Government school in Pitt Town. It opened in 1878. Pitt Town is also serviced by
