Dickson sits on calcareous shales of the Silurian Canberra Formation, the limestone that gave the region its original name “Limestone Plains”. In the flatter parts, Quaternary alluvium overlies the shale.
Dickson was the site of Canberra’s original aerodrome from 1924‑1926 and later hosted the Dickson Experiment Station during World War II. The first residential houses in the suburb were built near Braddon in 1958.
Within roughly 0.7 km you’ll find the Dickson Library, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation studios and the Dickson Baptist Church. The nearby Dickson Centre also provides cafés, shops and other services.
The suburb is bounded by Northbourne Avenue, Antill Street, Phillip Avenue, Majura Avenue and Wakefield Avenue. These roads give easy access to the rest of Canberra.
