Ellis Lane is a suburb of the Macarthur Region of Sydney in the state of New South Wales, Australia in Camden Council.
History
[edit | edit source]The area now known as Ellis Lane was originally home to the Gandangara people of the Southern Highlands although the Muringong, southernmost of the Darug people, were also known to inhabit the area. In 1805, wool pioneer John Macarthur was granted 5,000 acres (20 km2) at Cowpastures (now Camden). Ellis Lane is still primarily a rural locality.[2]

It sits within the state electorate of Camden, represented by Labor's Sally Quinnell, the former Mayor of Camden, and the federal electorate of Macarthur, represented by Labor's Mike Freelander.
