Your trip from Five Dock.
A name that started on the water
Five Dock appears in a newspaper reference to Five Dock Bay in 1805. Accounts differ on exactly which indentations inspired the name. Great North Road is where the modern village grew, so the town centre and the bay are two separate places to explore.
