Roughly including that area bounded in the south by the Great Western Highway, to the north by Richmond Road and to the east by Eastern Creek. The western boundary is, of course, the western boundary of the City of Blacktown. For some background history on Mt Druitt, go to the Mt Druitt Hall entry.
