Design and History of Whitton Park
Whitton Park was designed by landscape consultant Stephen Whitteridge following community consultation and was completed in June 2008. Its structures, retaining walls and pathways reuse bricks salvaged from two demolished houses, carrying local history into the design. Whitton Park takes its name from John Whitton, chief engineer for the layout and construction of railways in NSW, and Whitton Road shares the same railway heritage.
