Walter Bradley (Australian politician)

Walter Bradley (1 November 1836 – 27 June 1893) was an English-born Australian politician.

He was born at Hackney, near London, to Royal Mint assayer George Robert Bradley and Eliza Cave.

He was a long-serving Randwick alderman, being thrice mayor, and was a founder of the Zoological Society of New South Wales and the Moore Park Zoological Gardens.

He retired from his auctioneers' firm in 1887 to concentrate on real estate development, building a number of houses in Randwick.

Bradley died at Randwick in 1893 of apoplexy and paralysis following two high-profile legal cases in which his wife sued first for Judicial Separation and then for divorce.
