Drummoyne, New South Wales
:''For the seat in the New South Wales Legislative Assembly, see Electoral district of Drummoyne.''
Drummoyne is a suburb in the Inner West〔(Australian Suburb Guide: Sydney Inner West ) Retrieved 7 August 2013.〕 of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Drummoyne is 6 kilometres north-west of the Sydney central business district and is the administrative centre for the local government area of the City of Canada Bay.
Drummoyne sits on the peninsula between Iron Cove and Five Dock Bay. It is surrounded on three sides by Sydney Harbour and the Parramatta River and, as such, has some of Sydney's best waterfront views. Drummoyne neighbours the similarly historic Five Dock and Abbotsford.
==History==
William Wright, a merchant, whaler and sealer bought land in the northern part of the area in 1853. The property was bounded by present-day Lyons Road and Victoria Road.〔Drummoyne Municipal Council Drummoyne Heritage Study Specialist Report, pp. 9-10〕 Drummoyne House was built in the Georgian Classical style. It was rectangular in plan with a hipped roof with a concave verandah across the entire front and returned along each side.〔 He named it Drummoyne Park after his family home at Drummoyne on Clyde in Scotland. In Gaelic, Drummoyne means ''flat topped ridge''.〔Frances Pollon, ''The Book of Sydney Suburbs'', Angus and Robertson, 1990, pages 86-88〕
