Red Hill, Queensland
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.)
Red Hill is an inner suburb of Brisbane, Australia 3km west of the Brisbane CBD. The suburb is very hilly and mainly residential, with shops and small businesses located on Musgrave and Waterworks Roads. Until August 1968 electric trams ran along these roads, as well as Enoggera Terrace. Brisbane Transport continues to provide a bus service to the suburb.
From 1887 Red Hill was part of Ithaca Shire, which was subsequently raised to the status of a town in 1903. The Ithaca Town Council was absorbed into the Brisbane City Council in 1925. The council chambers of the the former Town Council were located in Enoggera Terrace and after amalgamation were used by the Brisbane City Council as a public library. The library closed in the 1980s.
A feature of the suburb is St Brigid's Roman Catholic Church which was built in 1914. Its hilltop position and grand structure ensures that it is visible from all directions and the church remains a landmark today.
Red Hill has gained some literary significance, thanks to the Nick Earls novel "Zig Zag Street", set in the Red Hill street of the same name.
