Kellys Bush Park, Heritage bushland in Hunters Hill, Australia.

Kellys Bush Park spans 4.8 hectares along the Parramatta River, featuring native eucalyptus trees and closed rainforest vegetation communities in New South Wales.

The land belonged to Thomas H. Kelly in 1892, who operated the Smelting Company before 19 acres were designated as open space for residential areas.

The Wallumettagal Clan of the Guringai language group first inhabited this land, sustaining themselves with fish and shellfish from the nearby waters.

The park provides walking paths, viewing platforms, and parking facilities for visitors exploring the natural environment along Nelson Parade in Hunters Hill.

This site marks the location of Australia's first green ban in the 1970s, when unions and residents successfully prevented residential development of the bushland.
