Lyneham sits on Silurian calcareous shales of the Canberra Formation, overlain by Quaternary alluvium – the limestone that gave Canberra its original name ‘Limestone Plains’. In the north‑west of the suburb, Ordovician greywacke of the Pittman Formation is present.
Development began in the late 1950s, with original homes alongside newer townhouses and renovated properties. The suburb is known for its leafy streets, established gardens, and a mix of mid‑century and modern architectural styles.
