Prior to development in the 1950s, Blackburn was primarily covered by orchards. Orchard Grove, an important access road through the suburb, was named so for this reason. Some original farm houses still stand in the area. During the 1960s and 1970s Blackburn South was a working-class neighbourhood before becoming a more middle-class neighbourhood in the early 1980s. South Blackburn Post Office on Canterbury Road opened around February 1954 and was renamed Blackburn South around 1957. Kinkuna Post Office on Vicki Street near Blackburn Road opened on 8 October 1960 and closed in 1979. The Blackburn South Sharps were the most prominent of the 1972-1977 Melbourne ‘sharpie’ gangs. Sharpies were an early precursor to the Australian phenomenon of (bogans ). "The Blackburn South Sharps" have been the subject of several modern exhibitions and documentaries due to the numerous photographs they took around Blackburn South landmarks.
