History

Created as a village separate from Adelaide known as "Mitcham Village", it was ancillary to a sheep station at Brown Hill Creek belonging to the South Australia Company. Prior to British colonisation, the area was inhabited by the Kaurna, an Aboriginal people. A group of about 150 Kaurna formerly camped at "Wirraparinga", now Mitcham Reserve (known for many years as "Brown Hill Creek reserve").[2] The reserve area occupies what was used as the village green.[3]

In August 1909, the Church of England's Orphan Home for Girls, established by Julia Farr and Mrs W. S. Douglas[4] in Carrington Street in Adelaide city centre in 1860,[5] moved to Fullarton Road, Upper Mitcham.[6]

Governance

The suburb is the seat of the Mitcham Council.[citation needed]

Mitcham is located in the federal electorate of Boothby and the state electorate of Waite, which have been considered safe Liberal seats. Both are currently held by the Australian Labor Party.[citation needed]
