Kuraree

Kuraree, where the foundation stone for the Perth Town Hall was laid in 1867, is Whadjuk Nyoongar country, in the boodjar of Yellagonga.

Kuraree is a high point flanked by Derbal Yerrigan and the Gumap flats to the south, and Yandilup, the wetlands in the area of what is now Perth Railway station to the north-east. There was a spring close by.

This high point was where Stirling felled a tree to symbolise the founding of the colony and the displacement of the Whadjuk Noongar.
