Silverwater, Administrative district in City of Parramatta Council, Australia

Silverwater spans 3 square kilometers along the southern bank of the Parramatta River, combining industrial zones with residential areas and institutional facilities.

The region originated from John Blaxland's 1807 land grant of 1290 acres, named Newington Estate, which initiated agricultural activities including salt production and cattle breeding.

The Wangal clan of the Eora/Tharawal culture were the original inhabitants of this land, residing near the Barramattigal clan of the Dharug culture.

The M4 Western Motorway provides direct access to Silverwater Road, with multiple bus routes connecting the district to Parramatta, Strathfield, and Sydney Olympic Park.

The first five-span prestressed concrete box girder bridge in New South Wales opened here in 1962, connecting Silverwater across the Parramatta River.
