History
Aubin Grove was formerly part of the rural locality of Banjup. It is named after Henry John Aubin, who leased agricultural land in the area in 1897.{{LandInfo WA|m|A|2007-05-15}} Aubin is said to have taken Lot 212, a lot which very closely resembles the current shape and size of Aubin Grove. His land bordered Lyon Road and Gibbs Road (as it does today), and also a shared boundary with James Hammond's plot to the west. His plot was converted into modern-day Hammond Park.{{Cite web |title=City of Cockburn {{!}} History Site {{!}} Perth Western Australia |url=https://history.cockburn.wa.gov.au/Buildings-and-places/Suburbs/Aubin-Grove |access-date=2024-03-03 |website=CockburnHistories |language=en}}
