The District Council of Highercombe was a local government area in South Australia from 1853 to 1935. It was proclaimed on 14 July 1853 in the eastern portion of the Hundred of Yatala, and was the original council in the area. It was bordered on the west by the eastern boundary of the District Council of Yatala and on the south by the River Torrens. The five initial councillors appointed by the Governor were Joseph Ind, of Little Paradise, Robert Milne of Dry Creek, George McEwin from the Glen Ewin Estate, John Gollop from Highercombe (now Paracombe) and Henry Klapper from Hope Valley. The new council variously met at five local hotels before building its own council chamber in Haines Road, Teatree Gully in 1855. It was the first purpose-built district council chambers in South Australia; the building survives today and is listed on the South Australian Heritage Register.By 1858, disputes had arisen about the effectiveness of the original boundaries, in particular between residents of the north and south of the district. A petition campaigning for the south to secede argued that "the interest of the north and south portions being in no way identical", there was "an apparent impossibility of amicable working of the district...as at present constituted". It was not a unanimous view, being met with a counter-petition stating that its signatories were "astonished" by the separation proposals, arguing that the district was working satisfactorily and that separate councils would be unnecessarily expensive. Those arguing for separation won the debate, and on 8 October 1858, the District Council of Teatree Gully, consisting of the northern portion of the Highercombe council, was declared as a separate council, while the southern portion of Highercombe council remained under that name.In 1906, the council was described as including the towns of Hope Valley, Highbury, Houghton and part of Inglewood. The original council chambers had fallen inside the Tea Tree Gully council boundaries, so the Highercombe council returned to holding meetings at local hotels, alternating between the Highbury Hotel, the Bremer Hotel at Hope Valley and the Travellers' Rest at Houghton, the latter two being hotels it had used in 1883–1885 prior to the building of the original chambers. It subsequently settled in the Hope Valley Institute when that building was opened in 1921.The abolishment of the council was promulgated on 21 March 1935, following a Local Government Commission report that advocated cutting the number of municipalities in South Australia from 196 to 142, merging into the District Council of Tea Tree Gully and re-establishing the original council boundaries under the Tea Tree Gully name. Highercombe had been named in that process as one of 53 councils in the state with an annual revenue of less than £2,000, and so had been considered to be unviable as a separate municipality. The council ceased to exist on 1 May 1935.

Anstey Hill Recreation Park is a 362-hectare (890-acre) protected area established in 1989 and located approximately 19 kilometres (12 mi) northeast of Adelaide, South Australia. The park is a significant reserve of bushland in the foothills of the Mount Lofty Ranges and is home to rare or vulnerable native plants and animals, and problematic invasive species. It is managed by the City of Tea Tree Gully, the Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources and a volunteer group—The Friends of Anstey Hill. The park is designed for recreational walking and has no visitor facilities. It is managed in association with the regional planning initiative known as of Yurrebilla, the Greater Mount Lofty Parklands. The park's land was gradually acquired by the Government of South Australia beginning in 1966, based on recommendations in a 1962 report. From 1981 onwards, plans were published that aimed to develop the area for commercial purposes, but public pressure led to its declaration as a public reserve in 1989. The last land added was a small area in 2003. Anstey Hill is a 371-metre-high (1,217 ft) peak in the park's south. Both hill and park are named after a road built by agricultural pioneer George Alexander Anstey. Fire authorities regard the park as an "arson hotspot", and it is frequently burned by bushfires—mostly deliberately lit. There is no permanent water except for springs in Water Gully, adjacent to ruins of a nursery, although there are many seasonal creeks. Much of the land is steep, rising 200 m (660 ft) across the park's breadth, with gradients often steeper than one in three. Erosion and land movements due to a significant geologic fault zone created this land form. The Gun Emplacement, a listed Geologic Monument and remnant of an ancient land surface, lies in the southwestern corner. The Mannum–Adelaide pipeline crosses the park and the Anstey Hill water filtration plant lies on its southern boundary; together they supply 20% of Adelaide's reticulated water. Significant historical uses of the area are preserved as ruins and highlighted with interpretive signs. The ruins of Newman's Nursery are all that remains of what was once the largest plant nursery in the Southern Hemisphere. Ellis Cottage is one of the earliest homes in the area, and the Rumps Bakery building housed the first bakery in Tea Tree Gully. Quarries supplied stone for significant Victorian buildings in Adelaide and aggregate for road building. Klopper's quarries in the southwest hosted plays for the Festival of the Arts in 1980 and 1988.
