History of Dundas Valley Dundas Valley was originally a part of Dundas. The Ponds Creek, which runs in the middle of the area, formed the valley with gentle slopes. In 1791, Sydney's English governor made land grants to 14 ex-convicts, who established settlements along the Ponds Creek. Many soldiers received lands in 1794, and Lieutenant William Cox bought and consolidated holdings in the Dundas Valley to start agricultural and sheep farms. He named his estate Dundas Heights using it for the first time in 1799. The 1950s and 1960s saw enormous housing growth in the area. Dundas Valley was made a separate suburb in 2007.
