== History ==
Waratah was once a major municipality in its own right, with an elected council and mayor, incorporated in 1871. Two notable mayors, both elected to the office three times each were John Scholey and auctioneer N.B.Creer, both of whom resided at North Waratah (now Mayfield, New South Wales). Scholey was instrumental in the establishment of the Waratah Bowling Club of which he was also patron.
Originally Waratah had as its industrial base a large colliery bearing its name.〔Australian Railway Historical Society Bulletin, November 1963 pp. 173–178〕
The suburb contains a major acute hospital, the ''Calvary Mater'' (formerly the "Mater Misericordiae"), owned by the Roman Catholic Sisters of Mercy, who, until recently occupied all the most senior nursing positions. Nearby is an established major 150+ -bed independent Home of the Elderly, ''Maroba''.
