History.
Moxham Park is a core bushland reserve, of a creek formed gully, that runs through Sandstone exposed soils to meet with the larger Toongabbie Creek. The Northmead Gully supports the water source used by the Burramatta clan of First Australians. The reserve links directly with Burramatta clan areas but has a similar nature to the Hills District lands used by the Bidji clan.
The location of the Burramatta and Bidji clans within the Sydney basin are illustrated on the following map.
Named after a prominent quarrying family. Thomas Moxham and his brother William purchase all the holdings along the Northmead Gully off the George Oakes Subdivision. The Moxham Brothers later sold the quarry behind the Northmead Bowling Club to the Hoarigan Family. Hourigan hit the water table in the 1950s resulting in the quarry becoming a local swimming area then natural wetland.
Vegetation.
Moxham Park contains a transition between the Cumberland Shale Hills Forests and Sydney Turpentine Ironbark Forest. Both of which are protected under the Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016 (NSW) and Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Commonwealth)
