History of Rosemeadow Rosemeadow is named after the estate of community-minded, resourceful Thomas Rose. A multifaceted personality, he arrived in Sydney as a convict in chains. But moved to Rosemeadow to hide his convict past and established a farm called Mount Gilead in 1818. Soon Rose did a lot of successful experiments in building dams and water conservation that helped locals overcome the 1829 drought. He also set up a mill, started a bakery and worked as a publican.
The first plan to urbanise Rosemeadow was made in 1976. However, it took a decade for the NSW Housing Commission to start the construction of houses and transform the farmlands. This encouraged private builders to start projects in the area, drawing it into the orbit of Sydney's urban sprawl.
