Funeral director in St Helens Park


St Helens Park is named after a Gothic mansion built in 1887 by Sydney solicitor George Charles Westgarth, which still stands at the end of St Helens Park Drive. By the 1940s it was a fly spray testing laboratory nicknamed Blowfly Farm. The oldest building is Denfield, an 1830s farmhouse on Appin Road built by John Farley of Fisher's Ghost fame, and both are on the Register of the National Estate.

The suburb is 56 kilometres south-west of the Sydney CBD in the City of Campbelltown. Harmony Funerals looks after St Helens Park families from our Smeaton Grange care centre at 186 Hartley Road.
