context_page_description: Homebush is a suburb in the Inner West of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. It is located 15 kilometres west of the Sydney central business district, in the local government area of the Municipality of Strathfield. The Homebush area was initially called Liberty Plains. The historic railway station named after the suburb was for a time the early terminus of the Great Western Line. Nearby, Homebush Bay is a major inlet on the southern side of the Parramatta River northwest of Homebush. Homebush Bay was also the name of a separate, official suburb in former Auburn Council, most of which is now the suburb of Olympic Park, located to the northwest of Homebush and north of the separate suburb of Homebush West.
context_section_description: The Village of Homebush estate was a section of the Underwood Estate located to the south of the railway, today split between the suburbs of Homebush and Strathfield.  The land had boundaries of The Crescent, Homebush, Beresford, Coventry and Bridge Roads, was subdivided in 1878. Within the estate, Broughton, Abbotsford and Burlington Roads and Rochester and Meredith Streets were also gazetted. In the December of that year, 381 house blocks were auctioned. By the end of the century many large houses and substantial villas had been built. In the 20th century house construction continued and most blocks had been built on by the end of the 1920s.
