Some information about the district I'm running for:
In 1843 George Hickox laid out the village of Enfield that comprised 44 quarter acre blocks. He named the village after his birthplace in Middlesex, England—derived from either the Anglo Saxon word enedfeld, meaning “duck field,” or the old English word feld meaning “open country.”
Approximately 20.7 square kilometres.
North of the electoral districts of Adelaide and Croydon, the area is residential, with some light industry. The northern boundary is Grand Junction Road, and it includes the suburbs of Mansfield Park and Woodville Gardens on the west, and Clearview and Broadview on the right.
The district partially includes the local government areas of the City of Port Adelaide Enfield, the City of Prospect, and the City of Charles Sturt.
First created over 1956–1970, the district was revived at the 1998 redistribution of electoral boundaries, and was formerly Ross Smith.
There were no changes to the boundaries in the 2007 redistribution. (Main boundaries changes, only. For full details, see the 2007 Report of the Electoral Districts Boundaries Commission at www.ecsa.sa.gov.au.)
