Unley is an inner-southern suburb of Adelaide, South Australia. The affluent suburb lies within the City of Unley. The suburb is the home of South Australian National Football League (SANFL) club Sturt. Unley neighbours the Parklands, Fullarton, Hyde Park, Malvern, Parkside, Wayville. The boundaries of Unley are Greenhill Road (north), Unley Road, Maud Street and Windsor Street (east), Cremorne Street and Opey Avenue (south) and King William Road (west). Unley is the family name of the wife of Thomas Whistler, owner of land in Unley which was laid out around 1857.〔(Unley: ECSA )〕 ==History== Prior to British settlement, Unley was home to the indigenous peoples of the Kaurna tribe. Settlement by migrants commenced in the mid-19th century with arrivals predominantly from United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and to a small extent German speaking lands. At this time a small number of other ethnic groups also appeared. The land was cleared of native forest to farm sheep and cattle and to plant vineyards and orchards. Since then, it has developed into a commercial hub, just south of Adelaide's city centre. The suburb also has a significant Greek Australian population. Unley Post Office opened on 17 January 1850. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Unley, South Australia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
