Bossley Park is named after John Brown Bossley, an English chemist who bought land on Smithfield Road and called his property Edensor. The area north of Edensor was subdivided in 1890 and became Bossley Park, with a public school built that year. Early settlers knew it as Box Country. Many Italian migrants arrived after World War II, and the 2021 census counted 15,492 residents, with Catholic the most common religion.
