About Stretton
Stretton is a suburb on the south side of Brisbane, Australia. It is 17 kilometres from the Brisbane Central Business District, and borders the suburbs of Calamvale, Sunnybank Hills, Karawatha, Kuraby, and Drewvale. In the early 19th century, Stretton and many of today's suburbs around the Sunnybank area were part of a vast area known as Coopers Plains. In 1861, Governor Bowen declared a wide area that included Eight Mile Plains to Stretton as a Brisbane Agricultural Reserve.
This agricultural reserve was originally used as a source of timber, but when it was found to be good farming land, settlers quickly turned it into farms that produced sought-after fruit, vegetables, and poultry. Stretton was gazetted as a suburb of Brisbane in 1971, and was named after George Stretton, who settled in the area in the 1880s. George Stretton was born in 1827 near Derby in England. After immigrating to Australia he became the first postmaster at Browns Plains in 1872, while at the same time he and his family ran a hotel at Browns Plains.
