Darkes Forest
Darkes Forest Land was used mainly for farming, grazing and shale mining. Growth was minimal until the 1880's and 1890's. Coal Mining was established in 1911, with townships growing up around the coal mines. Major features of the area include Boomerang Public Golf Course, Illawarra Golf Course and Darkes Forest Riding Ranch.
