Terrey Hills is a suburb of northern Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, located 25 kilometres north of the Sydney central business district in the Northern Beaches Council local government area. It is a region of the Northern Beaches. Terrey Hills is also a component of the Forest District, sometimes known informally as The Forest.
Terrey Hills is a highly verdant and in some sections semi-rural community where many people keep their horses. Terrey Hills is named after its initial landowners, Samuel Hills and Obediah James Terrey. In 1881, Obediah Terrey acquired 640 acres, and adjacent, Samuel Hills held 100 acres.
Indigenous people inhabited the area before to European arrival, and there are rock engravings in certain locations. One group of sculptures near Larool Road [4] depicts hunting scenes involving kangaroos, human figures, and footprints. The Terrey Hills Post Office was founded on June 17, 1935.
The shopping centre is comprised of a Friendly Grocer grocery, a Post Office, specialised stores, restaurants, and landscaping and plant providers.
Thompson Drive is the location of the Volunteer Services Centre of the Northern Beaches Council. Terrey Hills is the location of the Rural Fire Service (RFS), State Emergency Service (SES), Marine Rescue NSW, Citizens Radio Emergency Services Team (CREST), and the Wireless Institute Civil Emergency Network (WICEN) under the Radio Society’s aegis (MWRS).
Additionally, Terrey Hills has its own Rural Fire Station, which is located in the parking lot close to the Frank Beckman Reserve on Yulong Road. The volunteer brigade is the major fire-fighting agency for the hamlet and is equipped with a Hino Category 11 village pumper, an Izuzu Category 1 44 bush fire tanker, fire engines, and a Toyota Hilux support vehicle to combat both bush fires and structural / car fires.
