Around in Fisher


Fisher is a suburb in the Weston Creek district. It's named for Andrew Fisher, who was a Scottish coal miner, staunch unionist, and became Prime Minister of Australia for three terms between 1908 and 1915.

The circular carpark is quite unusual for a local shopping centre - this is the only one I've seen in my travels. The suburb was one of the first to be developed in Weston Creek, in 1968, and it's currently home to about 3000 residents.
