History
It takes its name from William Gore, the provost marshal in colonial Sydney, who had a property of 61 hectares in the area.
It is best known for being where the Gore Hill Freeway from Lane Cove to the Sydney Harbour Bridge starts and ends and as the location of the ABC’s Sydney television transmission tower, which is approximately 170 metres high. For more than 40 years Gore Hill was probably best known as the location of the ABC’s Sydney television studios which were established in 1956 and which operated until June 2003, when the site was closed and sold, and the ABC moved its television operations to its combined TV-radio studio facility in the inner-city suburb of Ultimo.
