Interesting facts about Hampton!

Hampton was associated with the popular bayside “Pic-Nic Point” in the early 1880s, reached from the railway terminus at Brighton. The Point, elevated with sheltering patches of ti-tree (Cordyline australis), was serviced by two hotels and coffee gardens. In 1887 the railway was extended from Brighton to Sandringham and the intervening railway station was named Retreat, after Pic-Nic Point’s Retreat Hotel. 

Already though, the beach and the pier were named Hampton, firstly after an early market gardener Dyas Hampton and, secondly, because incipient landboomers liked the regal sounding name, akin to the neighbouring Sandringham. The change of the station to Hampton, after representations by local councillors, confirmed the name.
