Reduction of Size

Throughout its history Mulgrave has been plagued by the shifting of its borders and the reduction of its total size. Its borders would remain relatively unchanged until 1949 when land was transferred from the Shire to Oakleigh. This occurred again a decade later with the Shire of Mulgrave now reduced to 23 square miles. As a part of the changes offices for the Shire were opened in present-day Notting Hill. Notting Hill is an area in West London, England close to the north-western corner of Hyde Park, and lying within the Royal Borough of Kensington and

Despite such reductions, it was in April 1961 that the Shire saw the biggest reduction in land, when it was gazetted as the City of Waverley. The City of Waverley was a Local Government Area located about east-southeast of Melbourne, the state capital of Victoria, Australia. Having been a Parish and a Shire, Mulgrave was now reduced to a suburb.

Present Day

Mulgrave is one of the few Victorian suburbs split into two distinct areas, with each sharing the common name but not prefixing it with ‘East' or ‘West’. This came about as a result of the renaming of parts of Mulgrave to Wheelers Hill, Victoria in the late 1990s. Wheelers Hill is a suburb in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Its Local Government Area is the City of Monash. So separated by distance are the two parts that a group local residents from the South Eastern area campaigned in 2004 to have the area renamed to Waverley Park, Victoria. "MMIV" redirects here For the Modest Mouse album see " Baron von Bullshit Rides Again " Waverley Park was a suburb name put forward to the City of Monash in Victoria, Australia. Their campaign was unsuccessful.

Greatly reduced in size and presence, Mulgrave is now best known for "Jacksons Road", which runs through the eastern part of the suburb. Jacksons Rd is familiar to many Melburnians due to the Jacksons Rd Interchange with the Monash Freeway .
