Although Melbourne pioneer John Caulfield, who founded the School of Fine Arts and Mechanics Institute in Collins Street in 1839, is thought to be the inspiration for the neighbourhood’s name, he had no actual link to the Caulfield neighbourhood. The region served as a supply of timber and a rest stop for livestock travelling from Gippsland to Melbourne for early European immigrants. Cattlemen using an old stock trail that Dandenong Road eventually supplanted were drawn to some natural springs and marshes.
