Chermside originally had the name of Downfall Creek, and was used in the 1860’s as a thoroughfare for traffic making their way to the goldfields. In 1903, a local teacher lobbied to have the name of the suburb changed to Chermside, honouring the current Queensland Governor of the time, Sir Herbert Chermside. People started settling in the area in the 1850’s, but the Gold Rush of 1867 propelled the suburb forward. The major industries at the time were blacksmithing and coach-building.
