History

Aubin Grove was formerly part of the rural locality of Banjup. It is named after Henry John Aubin, who leased agricultural land in the area in 1897. Aubin is said to have taken Lot 212, a lot which very closely resembles the current shape and size of Aubin Grove. His land bordered Lyon Road and Gibbs Road (as it does today), and also a shared boundary with James Hammond's plot to the west. His plot was converted into modern-day Hammond Park.
