(Elsternwick Park ) nearby and (Elsternwick Park Golf Club ) bordered by Nepean Highway and Glen Huntly Road have always been connected with the suburb name of Elsternwick. ==Name== In the same way that Ripponlea took its name from the "Rippon Lea Estate" of Sir Frederick Sargood, Elsternwick took its name from the largest property in the district: Charles Ebden's house ''Elster'' (Elster is German for "magpie" :de:Elster). The area was previously known as Red Bluff. The creek nearby became known as the Elster Creek; and, when a village grew up on the creek, the Anglo-Saxon suffix ‘wick’, meaning village, was added.〔(See )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Elsternwick, Victoria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
