Jackson was a huge admirer of Henry Parkes and believed that his Corridor of Oaks was a suitable monument to the man most responsible for the federation of Australian states. It is worth noting that every Prime Minister since Gough Whitlam has had their tree destroyed soon after planting, and the trees representing these Prime Ministers were re-planted later. Faulconbridge is well known for having been the home of artist Norman Lindsay. Some streets have been given names from some of the characters out of Lindsay's famous children's book The Magic Pudding. These include Bill Barnacle Avenue, Watkin Wombat Way and more. The house Norman Lindsay used to live in is at the end of Chapman Parade and has been turned into a gallery owned by the National Trust of Australia. A number of Aboriginal carvings are also to be found on the rock shelves in the area. The most prominent landmark in the area is the ruined house called Eurama, two kilometres west of Faulconbridge station. This substantial stone house with Tudor chimneys was built in 1881 by the stonemason Paddy Ryan, for Andrew McCulloch.
