Gooseberry Hill, Western Australia

Gooseberry Hill is a suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located within the City of Kalamunda.

It is located at the highest point south of the departure of the Helena River from the Darling Scarp on to the Swan Coastal Plain.

It is often associated with the railway formation of the Kalamunda Zig Zag and the northernmost high feature of Statham's Quarry, which lie on the north west of the locality within national park land.

[2] In 1878 surveyor Henry Samuel Ranford recorded the name of the eponymous hill as Gooseberry Hill; that name, derived from the presence of cape gooseberries in the area, referred to the Kalamunda area generally in the late 19th century.

[6] All of the US servicemen, the Royal Navy officer, and three US Red Cross women on board were killed.
