Former Boundaries
Before 1911, it included the area between Ginninderra Creek to the north and the Molonglo River to the south, with the Murrumbidgee River on the west, and land near what is currently the suburb of Aranda to the east. The name is still used today in the suburb of Weetangera, which was a small part of the much larger parish. In addition it included all of the present day suburbs of Holt, Higgins, Scullin, Florey, Hawker, Macquarie, and Cook, and the parts of Macgregor and Latham that are south of Ginninderra Creek.
