Dickson was originally the site of Canberra’s first aerodrome (1924‑1926) and later became an experimental station for agriculture during WWII. The suburb was gazetted in 1928 and residential development began in the late 1950s.
The suburb sits on calcareous shales from the Silurian‑age Canberra Formation, known historically as the "Limestone Plains." A thin layer of Quaternary alluvium covers the shale in the flatter parts of Dickson.
