The Lennox River is the proposed name for a waterway located in Sydney's South-Western Suburbs. The existing waterway is the tidal reach of Prospect Creek, a tributary of the Georges River. A proposal has been made to upgrade and reclassify the waterway as a 'river'. The proposed river would be 6.5 kilometres (4 mi) long, starting at the confluence of Orphan School Creek and Prospect Creek at Fairfield and flowing to the Georges River emptying into Dhurawal Bay at Garrison Point. The Lennox River would be named in honour of Scottish-Australian stonemason David Lennox who designed and oversaw the construction of the Lansdowne Bridge which crosses this waterway. The proposal to re-gazette this waterway was put forward by Community Advocate Lachlan Hyde to upgrade this waterway to river status. Local elected representatives including State Members of Parliament have given their support to the proposal and have pushed the New South Wales Government in support of this matter.The catchment area of the proposed Lennox River is largely urbanised with residential land uses and open space for recreation.
