Bedfordale, Western Australia

Bedfordale is a semi-rural suburb in the south-east of Perth, Western Australia, located within the City of Armadale.

Being close to Armadale railway station provides easy access to the city by train.

[2] The area is named after Admiral Sir Frederick Denham Bedford (1838–1913), Governor of Western Australia from 24 March 1903 to 22 April 1909.

Governor Bedford chose some of the older street names to commemorate several famous Admirals.

The suburb hosts the Elizabethan Village which has full size replicas of Anne Hathaway's cottage and Shakespeare's Birthplace, built by British engineer Leo Fowler in the 1970s.
