CLOVELLY PARK, SOUTH AUSTRALIA

'Clovelly Park' is an inner southern suburb of Adelaide in the local government area of the City of Marion. Before becoming an 'advanced' suburb, it was a massive farm and vineyard. It has a population of around 5,000.
It is the location of the Mitsubishi plant, although this is often called ''Tonsley Park'', due to the former name of that part of the suburb. It was also the location of the former Marion High School, which closed in 1996. This was mostly demolished and converted into a modern housing estate.
For a time, Clovelly Park was also referred to as Chrysler Park due to misprints on street directories labelling the train station as 'Chrysler Park' railway station. This was also because of the Chrysler Pub and Chrysler car sales.
The suburb is home to Cosgrove Hall (part of the old Marion High School) and the newly built ABC Daycare Centre, the only one in the region for at least 10 kilometres.
Clovelly Park has no real railway station as it is in Mitchell Park.
