Geography


In the east, the suburb's boundaries extend into the Gold Coast Broadwater. Of the actual land surface, the land use is residential with the exception of the south-western quarter of the suburb which is part of the Pine Ridge Conservation Park (27.9000°S 153.3928°E / -27.9000; 153.3928 (Pine Ridge Conservation Park)) which extends south into Runaway Bay.[3][4]

History


A 1926 map shows the area named as Pine Ridge.[6] That name is no longer official but persists in Park Ridge Road and in the Park Ridge Conservation Park.[4] Park Ridge Road as shown on a 1978 map extended north of the present road roughly along the current Oxley Drive through Holleywell and the current Paradise Road at Pardise Point (27.8870°S 153.3913°E / -27.8870; 153.3913 (Northern extent of Park Ridge Road in 1978)).[7]

The suburb takes its name from the residence of Joseph Wood Proud who was Mayor of Southport from 1934 to 1948. Proud named it after his home in England.[2]
