Welcome to Nudgee

The northside suburb of Nudgee has an interesting history including wine making and the genteel sport of golf. In 1866 the area included the Toombul Vineyards owned by the Childs family and in 1928 the same family developed the Nudgee Golf Course. Large tracts of wetlands remain today, including the Nudgee Waterholes and one of Brisbane's only remaining aboriginal bora rings.

For a suburb with a relatively small population, it packs in a lot. There's Nudgee Golf Course, the Nudgee State School established in 1874, the historic Roman Catholic Nudgee Cemetery, a recreation reserve, rugby field, transfer station (aka 'the tip') and even a seminary. Nudgee Beach is just up the road and the Nudgee train station makes it easy to get around as does the Gateway Motorway as it snakes across the landscape, allowing residents to head north or south as fast as the traffic is flowing.

Houses include Queenslanders on large lots, post-war styles and even a smattering of brand new homes.

Some lower parts of the area are swampy but the higher sections were once fertile market gardens and small farms. During the construction of the airport in World War II, topsoil was removed from the suburb and farming came to an end.
