Charnwood was planned using the Radburn principle, where houses were intended to face a common parkland and the streets served the rear of the homes, creating a network of pedestrian pathways that could connect points without crossing a road.
From 2004 to 2018 the suburb hosted the annual ‘Charny Carny’ carnival, which raised funds for local schools and the Mount Rogers Scout Group; the event ceased in 2020 due to a shortage of volunteers.
Charnwood sits on Silurian‑age rocks, predominantly Deakin Volcanics purple rhyodacite, with the Deakin Fault forming a boundary and Hawkins Volcanics green‑grey dacite and quartz‑andesite present on the opposite side of the fault.
