Oldbury is a district to the south of Perth, Western Australia, located within the Peel region. It has no central township, located west of the main pass road, the South West Highway, and close to centres such as Byford and Mundijong. Part of the Pinjarra Plain, the district is a productive environment featuring dairy and rural engagements, although consisting of sandy soils and largely felled. The area was part of the drainage scheme that contributed to the Peel Estuary environmental task and the consequent Dawesville cut. Oldbury is part of a major realigning process in the Perth metro area, as divisions of regional land and urban districts develop; boundaries maintained since European settlement.
