History:

                Original land sales for the Aspley area are recorded as far back as the mid-1850s. The focal point of the area became the Royal Exchange Hotel on Gympie Road, which quickly developed to also include provisions for many local residents of the time. The construction of bone mills and other industries also added to the area’s economy and influx of more population.

                By 1890, the first school and a number of churches had been erected. Growth continued over the next decades until the population reached over 400, which resulted in the construction of a public hall and Marchant Park. The area remained primarily rural farmland until the 1950s, when the more modern population and increased demand of the area demanded the development of more modern service facilities and infrastructure. Growth has continued into the modern day, and has resulted in the Aspley of today.
