Henley Beach is a coastal suburb of Adelaide, South Australia in the City of Charles Sturt.

History

Henley Beach draws its name from Henley-on-Thames, England,[1]where in 1186 it was hanlea which comes from either the celtic hen meaning old and ley referring to a place, or from Old English hean-leah meaning high meadow,[2] the land where it stands, sections 448 and 2080 in the Hundred of Yatala, was initially granted to Williams Bartley on November 1, 1850. Bartley later sold the land to James MacGeorge in August 1873. Subsequently, in May 1877, Arthur Harvey, Henry S. Anthony, and William P. Wicksteed acquired the land and proceeded to develop the town of Henley Beach.[3]
