Red Hill was gazetted in 1928 and named for the red‑soil ridge that forms its western boundary. The area’s street names honour ships and explorers, and its layout reflects Walter Burley Griffin’s 1918 plan for Canberra.
The suburb sits on terra rossa – a distinctive red soil derived from the Yarralumla Formation – underlain by a Silurian tonalite intrusion that gives the ridge its resistant, eroded‑residual character.
