Enfield Taxi

Enfield is located 13 kilometers south west of the Sydney central business district; it is under the local area government of Burwood Council and is part of the Inner Western suburbs area. Enfield was named after Enfield Town, which was an early market town of Middlesex in England. Prior to the arrival of the first fleet in 1788 the area belonged to the Wangal people, a clan of the Eora tribe which inhabited most of the Sydney area.

In 1810 William Faithful was granted 100 acres which covered what is now Enfield, much of Croydon part and sections of Burwood and Croydon. With the Liverpool Road in 1812 being built through part of his land, the high opposition of Enfield made it a suitable spot for a staging post. By the mid 1840′s a small village had formed and with it a vegetable and timber industry. In 1853 the post office was built.
