Bonython, Australian Capital Territory
Bonython is a suburb of Tuggeranong, a township in southern Canberra, capital city of Australia.
==History==
The suburb is named after Sir John Langdon Bonython, the owner of ''The Advertiser (Adelaide)'' who promoted Federation, and was a member of the first Australian parliament. Original concept plans for Tuggeranong indicate that the suburb was initially to be known as "Stranger". The name "Bonython" was declared when it was gazetted as a suburb of Canberra on 17 October 1986.〔 Streets are named after South Australians, especially journalists.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Suburb Name search results )〕
Prior to 1986, the land upon which Bonython now sits was grazing land, mainly grassland with scattered eucalypt trees. By 1989 construction of houses and the Stranger Pond water quality control pond began and Canberra’s newest suburb was born.
On 18 January 2003 the disastrous Canberra bushfire reached Bonython late in the afternoon. By that time, the winds had eased and the fire intensity was such that, where the fire reached housing on the western and southern fringes, residents were able to keep the fire at bay at their fencelines.
