Downer was gazetted in 1960 and named after Sir John Downer. The area originally served as a CSIRO agricultural research facility, even cultivating opium poppies during World II.
Downer sits on calcareous shales from the Canberra Formation, overlain by Quaternary alluvium. This limestone base gave Canberra its early nickname “Limestone Plains”.
