Carlton Crescent appears on the original Underwood Estate Subdivision of 1878 and is clearly one of the main thoroughfares running adjacent to the railway line. A year later six lots were auctioned at the very eastern end of the Crescent in Chapman Street. It has been subject to a lot of development and redevelopment.
