Thornbury

Thornbury is a residential suburb in the City of Darebin that sits between neighboring areas and mixes older homes with newer developments. Tree-lined streets and a blend of architectural styles define the streetscape throughout the neighborhood.

The area developed in the 1850s from a private landholding and took its name from a place in England. It later grew into a residential area featuring many homes built during the Victorian period.

The neighborhood brings together residents from many different countries who have built communities here over generations. You can see this diversity reflected in the shops, restaurants, and local events that shape daily life.

High Street is the main shopping hub where you will find everyday stores and services. Public transport connections via trains and trams make it easy to travel to and from other parts of the city.

The area is crossed by two major waterways that provide walking and cycling routes for residents and visitors. These green spaces link the suburb into a broader network of natural corridors throughout the region.
