The earliest development around Glengala Road began in the mid‑1920s, when the Glengala Estate was laid out on the western side of Kororoit Creek. At this time, the area was semi‑rural, with the Sunshine Golf Club being one of the few notable landmarks nearby. The area did not grow significantly until after World War II. Sunshine West, including Glengala Road, expanded rapidly during the 1950's and 1960's post‑war immigration boom. The Glengala local shopping strip emerges during the 1960's and the 1970's and they were simply known as the Glengala Road shops.5673.01 - Glengala Rd looking west from Gregory St (Sun Adv 337) 1992 Photo 01.JPG 5673.02 - Glengala Rd Cnr Pellew St (Suns Adv 377) 1992 Photo 01.JPG 5673.03 - Glengala Rd Cnr St. Andrew St (Sun Adv 377) 1992 Photo 01.JPGglengala road, sunshine west
