    History

    Aubin Grove was formerly part of the rural locality of Banjup. It is named after Henry John Aubin, who leased agricultural land in the area in 1897. Aubin is said to have taken Lot 212, a lot which very closely resembles the current shape and size of Aubin Grove. His land borded Lyon Road and Gibbs Road (As it does today), and also a shared boundary with James Hammond's plot to the west. His plot was converted into modern-day Hammond Park.[1]

    Important Roads

    Lyon Road

    This road serves as Aubin Grove's main road, with connections to important roads that connect Aubin Grove to the Kwinana Freeway. The road is named after John McMurray Lyon, who owned a plot in the area.

    Gaebler Road

    Aubin Grove's second major road. It connects the suburb to neighbouring Banjup. The road is named after German migrant Waldemar Gaebler. He requested the development of the road as its continuation, Oxley Road, bordered his property.
