Kirkham, New South Wales

Kirkham is a suburb of the Macarthur Region of Sydney in the state of New South Wales, Australia in Camden Council.

The suburb is largely undeveloped at present and possibly will remain so since much of it is on low-lying flood-prone land.

When she saw the house, she was reminded of lines in Tennyson's poem "The Lady of Shalott", which make a reference to Camelot.

Like other suburbs in the Camden area, the people are very homogeneous with 83.3% Australian born; the other countries of birth included England 3.5%, Italy 2.0%, New Zealand 1.2%, Malta 1.2% and China 1.2%.

[1] Kirkham is part of the south ward of Camden Council represented by Eva Campbell, Paul Farrow and Peter Sidgreaves.
