Winston Hills was formerly part of Governor Macquarie's plan to make the area a ‘Model Farm’. The large migration of Italian and Maltese migrants after World War II helped to sustain farming well into the 20th Century. During the 1960s developers purchased large portions of these properties, naming their development Winston Hills Estate in 1965 after Britain's wartime Prime Minister, Winston Churchill who died that year. The area was made a suburb in 1972. A residential town at the end of the Hills M2 Motorway. Towns surrounding Winston Hills include: Baulkham Hills, Northmead, Seven Hills and Toongabbie.
