Prospect Hill (New South Wales)

Prospect Hill (New South Wales) is a small hill in Pemulwuy, New South Wales about 30 kilometres west of central Sydney. It is higher than the ridges of the Cumberland Plain around it and has steeper slopes, although it is not much higher and the slopes are not much steeper. Its present-day highest point is 117 metres high,〔NSW Government Architect's Office, ''Prospect Hill Heritage Landscape Study and Plan'', NSW Department of Commerce, 2008, p 31.〕 although before its summit was quarried away it rose to a height of 131 metres above sea level.〔Map by Wilshire in: Wallace, I. ''Prospect and Richmond: Engineering and environmental geology'', Sydney, 1976.〕
==Geography==
Prospect Hill is a “nodal point” of the Cumberland Plain. Its summit affords a “goodly prospect” west to the Blue Mountains and east to the man-made landmarks of central Sydney. Rain falling on its southern slopes flows into Prospect Creek and then via the Georges River into Botany Bay. The northern slopes drain into Girraween Creek and eventually into the Parramatta River and Port Jackson (Sydney Harbour). Close by to the west is Prospect Reservoir and beyond it, Eastern Creek flows north-west into the Nepean-Hawkesbury River, the mighty river that encircles Sydney forming the boundary of the Cumberland Plain and eventually flowing into the sea at Broken Bay.
