Annerley

Annerley, an inner residential suburb, is 5 km south of central Brisbane. It is thought that it was named after the town of Annerley in Surrey, England.

The suburb extends southwards from Dutton Park (Cornwall Street) to an irregular boundary running east of Yeronga Park. It is bordered on the west by the railway line to the Gold Coast and is intersected by Annerley (formerly Boggo) Road and Ipswich Road.
