The name was all about buying votes with the unwashed that live in Forrestfield. Like Ellenbrook...
I didn't just dream this up. However it seems that my dyslexia kicked in - it is
officially Forrestfield North.
It is to be developed as a residential precinct, whatever that may be. It lies within the suburb of Forrestfield but is not a suburb itself.
But then, apparently, nor is High Wycombe or Maida Vale.
Our disagreement may be around the definition of suburbs.
As I see it, the northern boundary of the suburb of Forrestfield is Margaret Rd, north of Kalamunda Road and lies in the locality (not suburb) of High Wycombe.
The new station is well within the northern boundary of the suburb of Forrestfield but only just inside the western boundary between the suburb of Forrestfield and the suburb of Belmont.
