About Weddell
Weddell is a locality in the Northern Territory of Australia located about 24 kilometres (15 mi) south-east of the territory capital of Darwin City. Weddell is located on land and some adjoining waters which are bounded in part by the Blackmore River in the west, the Elizabeth River in the east and the Cox Peninsula Road in the south. The locality was named after the satellite town proposed during the late 1980s to be located to the south of the Darwin urban area and which was named after Robert Weddell who served as the Government Resident of North Australia from 1927 to 1931 and as the Administrator of the Northern Territory from 1931 to 1937.
