History
European settlers arrived in the area in 1839 and surveyed. Part of section 251, Hundred of Adelaide, was purchased by William Ferguson, who named the 248 acres (100 hectares) Rosefield after his wife Rosina Ferguson.
Some time before 1854 a Шаблон:Convert section was purchased by George White (1813–1876), tailor of Hindley Street and owner of "White's Rooms", who lived there with his family.[1] He established a large formal garden and developed Шаблон:Convert as a vineyard. By 1875 his cellars had Шаблон:Convert storage in wood, and in that year produced Шаблон:Convert.[2] White died in 1876, and his widow sold the property, which in September 1881 was laid out as Highgate-on-the-Hill by F.J. Botting (1819–1906), naming it after the English town in which he was born.[3]
