About Darlington (WA)
Darlington is a suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located on the Darling Scarp within the Shire of Mundaring, approximately 20 kilometres east of the city centre. The locality is situated upon the escarpment of the Darling Fault, bisected by Nyaania Creek and north of the Helena River. Developed from the establishment of a winery in the late nineteenth century, Darlington was served by the Mundaring loop railway from 1890 to 1954. Once known for extensive orchards, the area attracted artists and writers, including D. H. Lawrence. The former railway route is now the Railway Reserves Heritage Trail.
