Trinity Gardens is a suburb of Adelaide, South Australia. The name is taken from Holy Trinity Church on North Terrace, Adelaide, and was formerly known as Trinity Glebe.

History

[edit | edit source]

On 28 March 1840 the trustees of Holy Trinity Church – Osmond Gilles, Charles Mann and James Hurtle Fisher – were given approximately 40 acres (160,000 m2) of land in the area, as Glebe lands, by Pascoe St Leger Grenfell. The land came to be known as Trinity Glebe.[citation needed]

From 1911, the trustees had wanted to sell the Trinity Glebe for housing. However, the terms of the trust deed forbade it and required an act of Parliament to alter. In 1920, the Parliament made the necessary amendment. The land was then immediately subdivided, named Trinity Gardens, and sold for housing by Wilkinson, Sando & Wyles Ltd,[2] who promised to make "liberal provision in the way of space for tennis, bowls and croquet".[3]

North Norwood Post Office opened around 1886, which was renamed Trinity Gardens in 1950 and St Morris in 1963, when the second Trinity Gardens office opened in the present area of the suburb.[4]
