Palmerston sits on the late middle Silurian Canberra Formation, mainly composed of slaty shale and mudstone with surface exposures of folded ashstone. The area is also crossed by several faults, including the Winslade and Gungahlin faults, which define the eastern limits of the ashstone.
Palmerston was gazetted on 20 March 1991 and is named after early settler George Thomas Palmer. It was the second suburb developed in the Gungahlin district after the industrial area of Mitchell.
