Cannington, Perth,
Western Australia
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.)
Cannington is a southern suburb of Perth, Western Australia. Its Local Government Area is the City of Canning. Cannington's name derives from the Canning River, which forms part of the southwestern boundary of the suburb. It was first subdivided in 1882, and a railway station was constructed in the 1890s opposite Station Street in (now) East Cannington. For many years the areas of Cannington, East Cannington and Beckenham were known locally as "Waverley" and many Buildings and Businesses used the name Waverley to designate their locality, such as the Waverley Hotel, the Waverley Drive In Cinema, Waverley Fish n Chips, etc. The origin of the alternative use of Waverley is designated to the Cecil Gibbs who first used it in naming the Waverley Hotel that was a distinctive landmark over many generations. Between 1860 to 1883 William Lacey Gibbs, gradually accumulated most of what is Cannington. His slaughter yards were located near the present day Myer Department Store, Westfield. His brother built the 'Cecil/Waverley' Hotel on the corner of Cecil Road and Albany Highway (Carden, 1968). The hotel was altered many times over the years and was recently demolished for widening of the Albany Highway. Cannington contains one of the Perth metropolitan area's largest shopping complexes, Westfield Carousel, first built in 1972 and extensively refurbished and expanded in the 1990s, which includes a Hoyts cinema complex. Albany Highway contains a range of shops and small warehouses, as well as the City of Canning council offices. Bentley Hospital is just beyond the northwestern boundary on Mills Street. Along the Canning River is the Canning River Regional Park, which contains walking tracks and picnic facilities as well as the Woodloes Museum, a restored 1874 house built by architect and pioneer Francis Bird. Various sports and leisure facilities, including soccer fields, ten-pin bowling and an indoor athletics centre.
