Clayton South

Clayton South is a residential and industrial suburb 20 km south-east of central Melbourne.

It is situated in Melbourne’s sand belt country and has two large landfill sites resulting from sand extraction. The area was also used for market gardening, although there was a considerable amount of swampy or unimproved land when the Forest Hill Golf Club acquired an area for its Spring Valley golf course in 1948. The golf course is one of several in the sand belt country, extending from Huntingdale to Dingley Village.
